Quarterly & Drilling Results

In its consolidated financial statement for Q3 2023, Lavras reported a lower income but a higher stock-based compensation for the quarter year-on-year. For the period ending on September 2023, Lavras’s compensation was around 161,876 CAD; almost 13.23% higher year-on-year. The company also invested in exploration and evaluation properties, property, and equipment, which led to cash outflows. 

Later, on November 28, Lavras reported significant findings from its ongoing drilling program at the Fazenda do Posto discovery. Yielding 204 meters of continuous gold mineralization, this hole confirms the lateral continuity of the gold mineralization.

The company's CEO, Michael Durose, expressed optimism about the potential for developing a bulk tonnage open-pit gold mine. He was reported as saying, “This new discovery on our Fazenda do Posto claim block is a potential game changer for Lavras Gold,” said Michael Durose, Lavras Gold’s President and CEO.”

On another bullish note, LGC stock is up by almost 197.06% year-to-date.
