Vista Gold Co.

Vista Gold is aligning permits for Mt Todd with a feasibility study planned for 2025; initial applications have been submitted and initial approvals granted, with further approvals expected in H2 2026 and final permits in 2027. A dewatering program has begun in the Batman open pit and at the tailings storage facility; the site layout has been optimized and field technical pre-investigations prepared. The company is building teams in Perth and the Northern Territory, recruiting executives and seeking an Australia-based managing director to lead the project. Metallurgical and geotechnical test programs are under way with initial expected results; detailed engineering and construction are planned to start in 2027, followed by a 27-month planning, construction and commissioning phase. » Plus sur de.investing.com

Vista Gold completed a public offering with net proceeds of $42.0 million, leaving cash on hand of $52.7 million and a debt-free balance sheet as of March 31, 2026. Q1 net loss widened slightly to $3.1 million due to increased Mt Todd staffing, higher water-management power costs, and elevated legal and consulting expenses. The company is prioritizing permit modifications, metallurgical testing, geotechnical drilling and Australian team expansion in 2026 to ready Mt Todd for development, targeting the start of detailed engineering and design in 2027. Key permitting milestones include an EPBC filing expected in late 2026 and final EPBC authorization mid-to-late 2027. » Plus sur finance.yahoo.com
