Full-year audited 2022 results are slated for March 2023.

“Record 2022 gold production places us at the high end of our full-year 2022 guidance range of 120,000–135,000 ounces,” stated Paul Andre Huet, Karora’s Chairman and CEO. “I am proud of our team for once again delivering on our operational plan and achieving our targeted production level for 2022 while facing numerous headwinds.”

Karora Resources is targeting gold production of 185,000-205,000 ounces by 2024 from its mines in Western Australia.
