MP Materials (NYSE:MP) and the US Department of Defense have entered into a joint venture with Saudi Arabia’s Maaden to build a rare earths refinery in the Kingdom, marking the first major project under a new US-Saudi critical minerals cooperation framework signed in Washington this week.

The binding agreement gives both the US and MP a collective 49 percent stake in the refinery.

Maaden will hold not less than 51 percent, and the refinery will be built in Saudi Arabia, where it will process feedstock from both local deposits and international sources. Once operational, it will produce separated light and heavy rare earth oxides for customers in the US, Saudi Arabia and allied countries.

Rare earths are essential for the production of weapons systems, electric vehicles, renewable energy technologies and high-performance electronics. Secure supply has become increasingly important due to China’s sector dominance.

James Litinsky, MP’s founder and CEO, said the company views the partnership as an extension of its strategic role in Washington’s efforts to diversify global supply chains. “We are honored that the U.S. government asked MP to partner on a project of this magnitude and importance for America and its allies,” he said.

Maaden CEO Bob Wilt said the project fits squarely within the Kingdom’s national mining and industrial strategy.

“This JV is a significant step forward in the development of this important global sector, underpinned by the support of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources,” Wilt noted.

The joint venture was negotiated under a critical minerals framework signed by senior US and Saudi officials this week. The document is intended to formalize cooperation on rare earths, battery metals and other strategic inputs.

For Washington, the initiative reflects an effort to reshape supply chains away from geopolitical competitors. For Riyadh, it supports a long-term plan to leverage energy resources and expand its footprint in high-tech materials markets.

Financially, the deal is structured to be light in capital for MP.

The Department of Defense will fund the entire US contribution to the venture on a non-recourse basis, allowing MP to deploy technical expertise in separation and refining without taking on debt tied to the refinery’s construction.

The Saudi venture also connects to MP’s growing public-private alignment with the US defense sector.

In July, the company and the Department of Defense announced a multibillion-dollar partnership to accelerate the buildout of a domestic rare earth magnet supply chain. Under the partnership, MP is also constructing a second magnet manufacturing facility known as the 10X Facility, which is expected to begin commissioning in 2028.

When completed, MP’s total US magnet output will reach roughly 10,000 metric tons annually.

Beyond government partnerships, MP has also moved into large-scale commercial magnet supply. Also in July, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and MP announced a US$500 million long-term agreement that will supply Apple with magnets manufactured in the US using 100 percent recycled rare earths feedstock.

Under the arrangement, MP will expand its Fort Worth, Texas, Independence factory to produce components for hundreds of millions of Apple devices starting in 2027. Apple and MP spent nearly five years jointly developing recycling techniques to meet the company’s performance and design requirements.

MP will add a dedicated recycling line at Mountain Pass to support commercial scale as magnet production ramps.

A First Nation-owned mining project in Northern Manitoba is drawing national attention after new assessments suggest it could become a major North American source of magnesium.

Norway House took full ownership of the Minago nickel property in November 2024, and has since rebranded it as a critical minerals project after discovering large quantities of magnesium and platinum-group metals.

“Instead of a nickel project, we found out that we had a treasure chest of all sorts of critical minerals and very obscure minerals that really makes the project much more valuable, and unbelievably more attractive to produce,” Jim Rondeau, the community’s major projects director and a former Manitoba cabinet minister, told CBC.

In focus is a 60 meter band of dolomite rock containing what Rondeau described as a significant concentration of pure magnesium. In his view, the site could “rival the Ring of Fire in Ontario.”

“We could be producing all of the magnesium for Canada and the US for generations,” he added.

Magnesium, which is listed as a critical mineral in Canada, is prized for its use in aluminum alloys for automobiles, machinery and advanced manufacturing. It also has roles in aerospace and clean energy applications.

Norway House estimates production could begin by 2027, but reaching that point will require an investment of roughly C$1.3 billion. Based on a 2011 assessment, Rondeau said the mine has the potential to produce more than C$20 billion a year, and he believes that number could climb dramatically with the newly identified platinum-group metals.

Still, he emphasized the project cannot move ahead without support. Norway House has asked the federal government for about C$110 million and the province for roughly C$60 million to cover infrastructure and skills training.

To date, provincial support has been limited. Manitoba has provided C$50,000 from its mineral development fund for magnesium testing, along with ongoing non-financial assistance on permitting and quarry licensing.

Magnesium production is heavily centered in China, which currently supplies approximately 85 percent of the world’s demand. This concentration exposes North American manufacturers to price volatility and geopolitical risk.

West High Yield secures Record Ridge approval

While Manitoba’s Minago project is currently capturing national attention, BC has quietly emerged as another potential frontier for magnesium-mining activity in North America.

In October, West High Yield Resources (TSXV:WHY,OTC Pink:WHYRF) received final approval from BC’s Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals to develop and operate its Record Ridge industrial minerals mine near Rossland.

The provincial Mines Act Permit allows construction and operations after extensive environmental assessments and consultations with Indigenous and local communities.

The project will focus on magnesium, but the site also contains silica, nickel and iron.

The company’s long-term goal is to establish Canada’s first magnesium-refining plant.

Important Notices

Amazing AI plc (the ‘Company’), via its 100% owned Mauritius subsidiary Amazing AI Services Ltd, holds treasury reserves and surplus cash in digital assets. Whilst the Board of Directors of the Company considers holding digital assets to be in the best interests of the Company, the Board remains aware that the financial regulator in the UK (the ‘Financial Conduct Authority’ or ‘FCA’) considers investment in digital assets to be high risk. At the outset, it is important to note that an investment in the Company is not an investment in digital assets, either directly or by proxy. However, the Board of Directors of the Company consider digital assets to be an appropriate store of value and growth for the Company’s reserves and, accordingly, the Company is materially exposed to digital assets. Such an approach is innovative, and the Board of Directors of the Company wish to be clear and transparent with prospective and actual investors in the Company on the Company’s position in this regard.

The Company is neither authorised nor regulated by the FCA and digital assets are unregulated in the UK. As with most other investments, the value of digital assets can go down as well as up, and therefore the value of digital asset holdings can fluctuate. The Company may not be able to realise any future digital asset exposure for the same as it paid in the first place or even for the value the Company ascribes to digital asset positions due to these market movements. As digital assets are unregulated, the Company is not protected by the UK’s Financial Ombudsman Service or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

Nevertheless, the Board of Directors of the Company has taken the decision to invest in digital assets, and in doing so is mindful of the special risks digital assets presents to the Company’s financial position. These risks include (but are not limited to): (i) the value of digital assets can be highly volatile, with value dropping as quickly as it can rise. Investors in digital assets must be prepared to lose all money invested in digital assets; (ii) the digital assets market is largely unregulated. There is a risk of losing money due to risks such as cyber-attacks, financial crime and counterparty failure; (iii) the Company may not be able to sell digital assets at will. The ability to sell digital assets depends on various factors, including the supply and demand in the market at the relevant time. Operational failings such as technology outages, cyber-attacks and comingling of funds could cause unwanted delay; and (iv) digital assets are characterised in some quarters by high degrees of fraud, money laundering and financial crime. In addition, there is a perception in some quarters that cyber-attacks are prominent which can lead to theft of holdings or ransom demands. The Board of Directors of the Company does not subscribe to such a negative view, especially in relation to digital assets. However, prospective investors in the Company are encouraged to do their own research before investing.

Platinum appears to be headed for its first broadly balanced year since 2021, with new projections pointing to a small surplus in 2026 as supply recovers and investment demand retreats from unusually elevated 2025 levels.

The latest Platinum Quarterly from the World Platinum Investment Council (WPIC) shows the market is still firmly set for a deficit in 2025, with a shortfall of 692,000 ounces, equal to roughly 9 percent of annual demand.

However, 2026 may be a turning point where the extreme tightness of recent years begins to ease — not because demand is weakening broadly, but because investment activity is expected to normalize.

Platinum market starting to self-correct

The platinum price has risen sharply in 2025 alongside a strong performance across precious metals, and the WPIC states that higher prices have started to produce early signs of a “self-solving” market.

Recycling volumes, which respond more quickly to price incentives than mining output, are increasing at a double-digit pace and are set to play a larger role in 2026. At the same time, the buildup of exchange warehouse stocks linked to tariff uncertainty in the US is expected to unwind next year if trade frictions ease.

Those trends collectively underpin the WPIC’s baseline forecast for next year: a market moving to near equilibrium, with a small surplus of about 20,000 ounces in 2026.

High lease rates a key feature of 2025

While next year’s platinum surplus looks to be modest, it’s worth noting that physical availability of the metal has tightened to levels rarely seen in modern times. Platinum’s implied one month lease rate averaged 15 percent in the third quarter of the year after sitting at only 1 percent through most of 2024, pointing to spot market stress.

At times in mid-July, lease rates spiked near 40 percent as traders scrambled for metal that was either unavailable in Europe, or locked up in China and the US due to trade-related risk management.

Even if prices have moderated some of the pressure, elevated lease rates remains a defining feature of 2025.

The WPIC maintains that many of the concerns around availability stem from the simple drawdown of physical stocks. Years of persistent deficits reduced vaulted inventories in Europe, undermining assumptions that large, accessible stores of metal would remain available to supplement shortfalls.

Instead, the combination of region-specific demand, US tariff fears and aggressive Chinese imports resulted in metal being redistributed into markets where it could not easily be lent out.

Platinum supply/demand dynamics in 2026

The WPIC expects these pressures to ease next year as supply increases.

Total supply is forecast to rise 4 percent year-on-year in 2026 to 7,404,000 ounces, the highest since 2021.

Mine production is expected to inch higher, mainly because South African producers will be able to release some of the semi-finished inventory they could not process earlier. Zimbabwean output is also anticipated to improve slightly, while declines in North America and Russia are expected to be relatively modest.

More importantly, platinum recycling supply is forecast to grow by 10 percent as a direct result of the stronger price environment and increased processing of spent autocatalysts.

On the flip side, total platinum demand is expected to drop 6 percent to 7,385,000 ounces in 2026, almost entirely because investment flows are set to normalize after an unusually strong 2025.

Investment demand is projected to fall 52 percent as exchange warehouse stocks unwind and investors take profits after this year’s price surge. The WPIC frames this shift not as weakening sentiment, but as a correction from one-off trade and macro conditions that inflated investment inflows last year.

Will the platinum price fall in 2026?

These supply/demand dynamics are expected to produce the narrow surplus projected for 2026.

However, the report emphasizes that market balance will not necessarily translate into lower prices. Spot physical tightness persists, with many structural constraints remaining in place and investors continuing to allocate toward hard assets given interest rate expectations and growing concerns around critical minerals security.

A surplus, but still a fragile market

The WPIC suggests that the 2026 surplus should be viewed as tentative and highly sensitive to disruptions.

Platinum mine supply remains vulnerable to operational and logistical issues, with output from South Africa and Russia being exposed to infrastructure pressure, equipment shortages and grade declines.

Moreover, the Section 232 US trade investigation is adding to the uncertainty. Delayed by the extended government shutdown, the review has been seen as a major driver of exchange warehouse inflows in 2025.

The outcome will shape how quickly those stocks return to the market, and whether regional price differentials persist into 2026, especially after China revoked its longstanding tax rebate on imported platinum this year.

Taken together, the WPIC’s outlook for 2026 portrays a market that is no longer defined by scarcity, but not yet comfortably supplied. After years of sizable deficits, a small surplus could dampen opportunities, but tightness in physical availability and the role of trade politics in shaping the market may still support the price.

Here’s a quick recap of the crypto landscape for Friday (November 21) as of 9:00 a.m. UTC.

Get the latest insights on Bitcoin, Ether and altcoins, along with a round-up of key cryptocurrency market news.

Bitcoin and Ether price update

Bitcoin (BTC) was priced at US$83,590.70, down by 10.4 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price of the day was US$81,868.75 and its highest was US$91,971.75.

Bitcoin’s slide continues as it heads for its worst month since the 2022 crypto crash.

The largest cryptocurrency fell and touched US$81,000 on Friday before recovering to around US$84,166, extending a monthly decline of about 23 percent that marks its heaviest drop since June 2022.

Despite pro-crypto messaging from the Trump administration and a year of strong institutional adoption, Bitcoin has now fallen more than 30 percent from its early-October record high. The downturn accelerated following the massive October 10 liquidation event that erased US$19 billion in leveraged positions and wiped roughly US$1.5 trillion from the combined value of all cryptocurrencies.

Institutional flows reflect the same caution. US-listed Bitcoin ETFs have recorded a record US$3.79 billion in outflows this month, surpassing February’s previous high, with BlackRock’s IBIT alone seeing more than US$2 billion in redemptions.

In total, about US$1.2 trillion has been wiped from crypto markets over the past six weeks, according to CoinGecko data.

Ether (ETH) was at US$2,736.63, down 11.2 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price on Friday was US$2,675.70 and its highest was US$3,033.20.

Altcoin price update

  • XRP (XRP) was priced at US$1.94, down by 12.2 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price of the period was US$1.86 and its highest was US$2.13.
  • Solana (SOL) was trading at US$128, down by 13 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price of the day was US$123.30 and its highest was US$141.97.

Fear and Greed Index snapshot

CMC Crypto Fear and Greed Index, Bitcoin price and Bitcoin volume.

Chart via CoinMarketCap.

As of Friday, CMC’s Crypto Fear & Greed Index has plunged to 11, firmly in “extreme fear” and its lowest level since late 2022.

Reports of large-scale whale liquidations have added to the uncertainty, amplifying pressure across an already fragile market. Further, traders brace for potential Federal Reserve inaction on rate cuts. CME’s FedWatch now shows only 37.6 percent expecting a 25-basis-point cut in December, while more than 62 percent anticipate no change, a reversal from near-even odds just a week ago.

Prediction market Polymarket reflects the same trend, pricing a 63 percent chance of no move after sentiment flipped late Tuesday.

Today’s crypto news to know

Bitcoin logs weakest month since 2022

Bitcoin is heading for its steepest monthly decline since the wave of corporate failures that hit the crypto sector in 2022, with the token sliding below US$82,000 on Friday.

Its November losses have now reached roughly 25 percent, reversing much of the momentum that carried prices to record highs in early October.

Overall, data from CoinGecko shows the total crypto market value dipping back under US$3 trillion as Ether and mid-cap tokens recorded similar double-digit declines.

Analysts link the downturn to cascading liquidations that began on October 10, when nearly US$19 billion in leveraged bets were wiped out in a single session. Selling pressure intensified again this week with a two-day liquidation tally topping US$2 billion, according to CoinGlass.

Long-dormant whale activity has added to uncertainty after a wallet holding Bitcoin since 2011 unloaded more than US$1.3 billion in late October.

S&P stocks shed US$2.7 Trillion

A sharp pullback across US equities sparked another wave of risk-off trading in crypto, sending Bitcoin to its weakest level in seven months.

The S&P 500’s nearly 4 percent decline on Thursday erased more than US$2.7 trillion in market value, according to Bloomberg calculations, overshadowing an earlier bounce driven by enthusiasm around AI-linked earnings.

Crypto assets fell in tandem, with Bitcoin briefly revisiting the US$85,000 range and total liquidations surpassing US$800 million for the day.

Coinbase rolls out ETH-backed loans

Coinbase has launched a new lending feature that allows eligible US users to borrow up to US$1 million in USDC by using Ether as collateral.

The product is integrated with the Morpho protocol on Base, though users interact with it entirely through Coinbase’s interface. Borrowers keep exposure to ETH’s price movements while accessing liquidity without having to sell their holdings.

The company says the service is available across most US states, with the exception of New York due to regulatory requirements.

Here’s a quick recap of the crypto landscape for Wednesday (November 19) as of 9:00 p.m. UTC.

Get the latest insights on Bitcoin, Ether and altcoins, along with a round-up of key cryptocurrency market news.

Bitcoin and Ether price update

Bitcoin (BTC) was priced at US$89,503.92, down by 3.5 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price of the day was US$88,540.26 and its highest was US$92,074.61.

Ether (ETH) was at US$2,942.52, down 5.8 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price on Wednesday was US$2,872.51 and its highest was US$3,093.82.

Altcoin price update

  • XRP (XRP) was priced at US$2.04, down by 8.4 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price of the period was US$2.03 and its highest was US$2.14.
  • Solana (SOL) was trading at US$132.84, down by 6.2 percent over 24 hours. Its lowest price of the day was US$130.72 and its highest was US$138.25.

Crypto derivatives and market indicators

Derivatives markets witnessed significant long position liquidations totaling approximately US$68.99 million for Bitcoin and US$117.35 million for Ether. The dominance of long liquidations highlights persistent bearish pressure and forced deleveraging across the derivatives ecosystem, exacerbated by price drops below key support levels.

Meanwhile, open interest in Bitcoin rose by 1.5 percent, reaching US$66.11 billion, and Ether’s open interest increased by 1.64 percent to US$37.78 billion, signaling continued trader engagement despite recent volatility.

Bitcoin’s relative strength index is at 32.54, indicating that the cryptocurrency is in oversold territory. That suggests potential for a near-term technical bounce, although the market remains vulnerable.

Funding rates remain slightly positive, with Ether at 0.008 and Bitcoin at 0.01, implying that the perpetual futures market still carries a mild premium for longs, despite liquidation pressure. This delicate funding rate environment reflects cautiously bullish sentiment mixed with forced position unwinds.

Traders should watch open interest trends and funding rates closely to gauge whether the market stabilizes, or if continued downside liquidity pressure will push Bitcoin and Ether toward lower technical support zones — near US$88,000 for Bitcoin, and closer to US$2,800 for Ether. This dynamic underscores the high risk and opportunity for derivatives traders navigating the current oversold but volatile crypto market conditions.

Today’s crypto news to know

21shares launches spot Solana ETF in US

Despite a volatile market, 21shares has successfully launched its spot Solana exchange-traded fund (ETF), TSOL, in the US. It debuted with more than US$100 million in assets under management.

This is the fifth Solana-focused ETF in the US and it offers a key feature: the ability for holders to indirectly earn staking rewards from underlying SOL tokens, enhancing its appeal. Its number for assets under management at launch underscores persistent investor demand for regulated altcoin exposure.

TSOL’s success could be a leading indicator for further crypto ETF innovation, with forecasts predicting over 100 new altcoin ETFs by 2026. This influx is expected to inject significant institutional capital into altcoins like SOL, potentially legitimizing them further and boosting token prices.

Kraken files confidential IPO with SEC

Kraken announced it has confidentially filed a registration statement for an initial public offering (IPO) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a significant step toward becoming a publicly traded company.

The offering is contingent on SEC review and market conditions. This filing follows others, like Grayscale’s, aligning Kraken with major US crypto exchanges like Gemini and Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN). Kraken’s IPO pursuit signals the growing maturity and institutional acceptance of crypto exchanges. A public listing would provide capital for expansion, increase visibility and transparency and potentially boost investor confidence.

More broadly, a successful IPO for Kraken would be a landmark event, cementing crypto exchanges’ transition from niche startups to mainstream financial infrastructure.

Heliostar Metals Ltd. (TSXV: HSTR,OTC:HSTXF) (OTCQX: HSTXF) (FSE: RGG1) (‘Heliostar’ or the ‘Company’) today reported unaudited financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (‘Q3 2025’), which corresponds to the second quarter of Heliostar’s fiscal reporting year 2025. Results are presented in US dollars, unless stated.

Heliostar CEO, Charles Funk, commented, ‘In Q3, Heliostar continued to generate strong cash flow from our operating mines. We grew production and strengthened our capital position while significantly reinvesting across the portfolio. In Q3, this included significant drill programs at Ana Paula and La Colorada, economic studies for La Colorada and Ana Paula as well as permissions and preparations to restart mining at San Agustin. Our strong cash balance has allowed us to internally fund this restart. This gives us a clear path to generate cash flow from operations which will fund the ongoing development of Ana Paula with little-to-no equity dilution.’

‘Our recently released PEA for Ana Paula shows that the additional 101,000 ounces per year of production at an all-in sustaining cost of just $1,011/oz will be a significant cash flow generator for Heliostar, supporting growth through the next decade. The cash generated by being a producer in the current gold price environment affords us opportunities to accelerate our plan to become a mid-tier producer with 500,000 ounces per year before the end of the decade.’

Third Quarter 2025 Quarterly Conference Call

Heliostar will host a quarterly conference call on Monday, November 24, 2025, at 2:00 PM, Eastern Time/11:00 AM Pacific Time. The call will provide a corporate update following the release of our financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2025.

Q3 2025 Operational and Financial Highlights

Total gold production of 9,165 gold equivalent ounces (‘GEO’) (8,949 gold ounces) in Q3 2025. Gold production was realized from mining the Junkyard Stockpile at the La Colorada mine, as well as re-leaching the previously stacked ore at the La Colorada and the San Agustin mines. Production year-to-date January – September 2025 (‘YTD’) remains on track to achieve the lower half of the 2025 guidance issued by the Company on February 4, 2025, of 31,000-41,000 GEOs.

Total Cash Cost of $1,500 per GEO produced in Q3 2025. The combined YTD cash cost (see ‘Non-IFRS Measures’) is $1,405 per GEO.

Total AISC of $1,825 per GEO sold in Q3 2025. The increase from Q2 reflects a change in calculation methodology to include corporate General and Administrative (‘G&A’) and stock based compensation costs, expensed exploration incurred in the period, and remove previously-included by-product credits. The higher AISC is also a function of fewer GEOs sold in the period compared to Q2 2025. The consolidated YTD AISC (see ‘Non-IFRS Measures) is $1,799 per GEO sold.

Total Cash Costs and AISC are below the 2025 guidance range due to higher production relative to the budget. The Company anticipates materially higher costs in Q4 due to one-off sustainable capital investment incurred to restart mining from the Corner Area. These expenses are anticipated to return to lower rates in early 2026 at San Agustin.

Mine Operating Earnings of $14.2 million in Q3 2025. The Company continued to report strong results in Q3 2025 with steady operating unit costs and operating margin benefiting from selling into a rising gold market. Mine operating earnings YTD 2025 are $40 million.

Net income attributable to shareholders of $1.3 million, or $0.01 per share, for Q3 2025. Net income of $1.3 million ($0.01 per share) for Q3 2025 compared to a net income attributable to shareholders of $1.9 million ($0.01 per share) for Q2 2025. This was due to the increased exploration expense as drilling activities at Ana Paula ramped up and lower GEO sales volume in the quarter.

Strengthened financial position and liquidity: On September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $34.6 million and working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) of $46.7 million. The cash position decreased compared to Q2 due to the increase in exploration spending. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had 1,688 unsold ounces (worth approx. $6.9M at current spot gold prices) and no debt.

Maintained stable production at La Colorada mine. The mining of new ore restarted at the Junkyard Stockpile in January 2025. Production from the Junkyard Stockpile was steady during Q3 2025, with operating costs as expected, grade in line with the reserve model and ore tonnes reconciling slightly higher than expected. Production YTD 2025 was 13,328 GEOs (12,883 gold ounces). Ore feed from the Junkyard Stockpile is planned to continue into 2026, with other historical stockpiles identified to provide additional material to be crushed and stacked on the leach pad thereafter. Further, subject to receiving certain land access approvals, the Company intends to expand the Veta Madre pit to exploit its 43k ounces of gold reserves. In addition, drilling is ongoing at Veta Madre Plus with the aim of adding this additional Indicated material into a near-term mine plan in short order.

Restart of mining at San Agustin. Preparation work to commence mining is underway at San Agustin from the Corner area following the receipt of all necessary approvals to restart mining in Q3. The Company anticipates stacking first ore in December with production from the Corner starting near year end and continuing into 2027. Recoverable reserves at the Corner are estimated at 44.5k ounces of gold.

Strong economics and continued drilling success at Ana Paula drive additional investment. On November 6, 2025, the Company announced the results of a Preliminary Economic Study (PEA) for Ana Paula. These showed attractive economics at a conservative gold price driven by production of 101koz/yr after ramp up at an average all-in sustaining cost of $1,011/oz. On the back of this positive outcome, the Company has announced its intention to complete the underground decline access to the deposit in 2026. Technical and regulatory programs are being advanced in parallel and will continue through 2026 to complete a bankable feasibility study in early 2027.

Preparation of updated technical reports. The Company announced the results of an updated technical report for the La Colorada Mine on October 17, 2025, and is concluding an updated prefeasibility study (‘PFS’) for the Cerro del Gallo Project. The Company plans to release the results of the Cerro del Gallo PFS in Q4 2025 and continues to advance the Ana Paula Project feasibility study.

Operational Review

Consolidated Production and Costs

Q3 2025 was the Company’s fourth reporting period with metals production. The Company had no production in Q3 2024.

Production of 9,165 GEOs (8,949 gold ounces) for Q3 2025 was reported from the La Colorada mine and the San Agustin mine. In late Q2, the El Castillo mine ceased production and reclamation commenced at the start of Q3. The combined YTD 2025 production of 25,642 GEOs (24,988 gold ounces) is consistent with the 2025 guidance issued by the Company. Heliostar is on track to achieve the lower half of the 2025 production guidance of 31,000-41,000 GEOs with the several week delay in being able to restart San Agustin pushing production from that asset into 2026.

The combined cash costs for the producing operations were $1,500 per GEO sold, and the consolidated AISC was $1,825 per GEO sold. The combined cash costs and AISC are currently in line with the 2025 guidance issued by the Company. Full-year results are expected to be within the guidance range of $1,800-$1,950/GEO for Cash Costs and $1,950-$2,100/GEO for AISC.

La Colorada Mine

Operating results for Q3 2025 were as follows:

La Colorada Q3 2025 YTD 2025
Gold produced oz 5,311 12,883
Gold equivalent ounces (‘GEOs’) produced GEO 5,479 13,328
Gold sold oz 4,122 10,865
Gold equivalent ounces (‘GEOs’) sold GEO 4,229 11,205
Cash cost1 $/GEO sold 1,592 1,354
All-in sustaining costs1 (‘AISC’) $/GEO sold 1,648 1,439

 

In January 2025, mining of new ore restarted at the Junkyard Stockpile by the Company, alongside re-leach activities of ore stacked by previous operators.

During the reporting period, the La Colorada mine produced 5,479 GEOs (5,311 gold ounces). Total revenues of $14.7 million were reported from sales of 4,229 GEOs. The increase in production compared to Q2 was driven by higher grades placed on the leach pad and the first full quarter of solution flow from the leach pad after restart of operations. Production from the leach pad has increased steadily throughout the year and continues to meet all expected parameters.

For the reporting period, cash costs were $1,592 per GEO ($1,354 per GEO YTD 2025). AISC was $1,648 per GEO ($1,439 per GEO YTD 2025), on track to be at the lower end or below 2025 AISC guidance of $1,850-$1,975/GEO.

The Company plans to continue mining of the Junkyard Stockpile through 2025 and into 2026, with other historical stockpiles identified to provide additional, continued feed to the crushers thereafter. Further, subject to receiving certain land access approvals, the Company intends to expand the Veta Madre pit to exploit 43k ounces of gold reserve, which will be timed sequentially with the ore feeds from the historical stockpiles. Drilling is ongoing to define the mineralization at Veta Madre Plus, with the aim of bringing it into the near-term mine plan in short order.

Subsequent to the reporting period, Heliostar released the results of an updated technical report for La Colorada showing and increased resource and a lower capital expenditure. This showed a mine with a six-year life producing 286k gold ounces at an AISC of $1,626 per GEO. This resulted in upside case economics of an NPV5% of $243.3M and an IRR of 168.4% at a $3,500/oz gold price. For more details, see the press release here.

San Agustin Mine

Operating results for Q3 2025 were as follows:

San Agustin Q3 2025 YTD 2025
Gold produced oz 3,638 11,613
Gold equivalent ounces (‘GEOs’) produced GEO 3,686 11,815
Gold sold oz 3,430 12,182
Gold equivalent ounces (‘GEOs’) sold GEO 3,480 12,373
Cash cost1 $/GEO sold $ 1,389 1,437
All-in sustaining costs1 (‘AISC’) $/GEO sold $ 1,587 1,546

 

In September 2024, the previous owners of San Agustin placed the mine under care and maintenance, with metals production continuing from the re-leaching of leach pads.

During the reporting period, the San Agustin mine produced 3,686 GEOs (3,638 gold ounces). Total revenues of $12.1 million were reported from sales of 3,480 GEOs. Re-leaching performance continued well above expectations in the quarter as a result of enhanced recovery initiatives conducted earlier in the year. Gold production through the first nine months of the year exceeded full-year 2025 guidance for re-leaching from the mine.

For the reporting period, cash costs were $1,389 per GEO ($1,437 per GEO YTD 2025). AISC was $1,587 per GEO ($1,546 per GEO YTD 2025), YTD on track to achieve full year AISC guidance of $1,700-$1,850/GEO.

During the quarter, the Company completed all regulatory requirements to enable the restart of mining at San Agustin from the Corner area (see News Release dated July 22, 2025). Work to commence mining of the Corner Area cut back was undertaken subsequently, including moving road access, a power line and contractor selection. First ore is on track to be stacked on the leach pad in the coming weeks. Initial gold production from this new material is expected to start near year end 2025 and continue into 2027. Recoverable reserves at the Corner are estimated at 44.5k ounces of gold.

Ana Paula Project

Development and Exploration expenditures at the flagship Ana Paula Project were $3.9 million in Q3 2025 ($1.8 million in Q3 2024).

During Q3 2025, the Company progressed its ongoing 15,000 metre drilling program at Ana Paula with the objective of delivering mineral reserves to support a 10-year life of mine in the Feasibility Study planned to be released in 1H 2027. On October 6, 2025, the Company announced results from the infill drill program (including 88.1m metres at 8.82 g/t) and the addition of a third rig. Subsequent to quarter end on November 18, 2025, the Company announced additional infill results of 83.2m of 17.4 g/t and 70.7m of 9.38 g/t. The drill program continues to successfully define wide zones of high grade mineralization.

Subsequent to the reporting period, Heliostar released the results of a Preliminary Economic Study (PEA) for Ana Paula showing strong economics at a conservative gold price. This showed a mine with a nine year life producing 101koz/yr after ramp up at an AISC of $1,011/oz. This resulted in upside case economics of an NPV5% of $1,012M, an IRR of 51.3% and average annual after-tax free cash flow of $168M at a $3,800/oz gold price. For more details, see the press release here.

Cerro del Gallo Project

During Q3 2025, the Company conducted advanced study work towards releasing a prefeasibility study for the Cerro del Gallo project based on information collected by previous owners. This work includes updated resources and reserves based on an updated gold price as well as better definition of transition material and an optimized mining and stacking plan. The results of this study are planned to be released in the coming weeks. All major environmental and other permits will need to be obtained before an investment decision can be considered by the Company.

Funding Overview

In the three months ended September 30, 2025, 5,916,250 warrants and 766,250 stock options were exercised for total proceeds of $1.5 million and 1,299,579 RSUs were converted.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no debt.

Change of Year End

The Company has changed its financial year-end from March 31 of each year to December 31 of each year. The next financial year-end of the Company will occur on December 31, 2025, for the nine months then ended.

Non-IFRS Measures. This news release refers to certain financial measures, such as all-in-sustaining costs, which are not measures recognized under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. These measures may differ from those made by other companies and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such measures as reported by other companies. These measures have been derived from the Company’s financial statements because the Company believes that they are of assistance in understanding the results of operations and its financial position. Certain additional disclosures for these specified financial measures have been incorporated by reference and can be found in the Company’s MD&A for Q3 2025, available on SEDAR+.

Cash costs. The Company uses cash costs per gold equivalent ounce sold to monitor its operating performance internally. The most directly comparable measure prepared in accordance with IFRS is cost of sales. The Company believes this measure provides investors and analysts with useful information about its underlying cash costs of operations. The Company also believes it is a relevant metric used to understand its operating profitability and ability to generate cash flow. Cash costs are measures developed by metals companies in an effort to provide a comparable standard; however, there can be no assurance that the Company’s reporting of these non-GAAP financial measures are similar to those reported by other mining companies. They are widely reported in the metals mining industry as a benchmark for performance, but do not have a standardized meaning and are disclosed in addition to IFRS measures. Cash costs include production costs, refinery and transportation costs and extraordinary mining duty. Cash costs exclude non-cash depreciation and depletion and site share-based compensation. Production costs include mining, crushing, processing, and direct overhead at the operation sites.

AISC. AISC more fully defines the total costs associated with producing precious metals. The AISC is calculated based on guidelines published by the World Gold Council (WGC), which were first issued in 2013. In light of new accounting standards and to support further consistency of application, the WGC published an updated Guidance Note in 2018. Other companies may calculate this measure differently because of differences in underlying principles and policies applied. Differences may also arise due to a different definition of sustaining versus growth capital. Note that in respect of AISC metrics within the technical reports, because such economics are disclosed at the project level, corporate general and administrative expenses were not included in the AISC calculations. AISC per GEO includes mining, processing, direct overhead, reclamation and sustaining capital.
