Rhea-AI Filing Summary

GoldMining Inc. released an updated preliminary economic assessment for its La Mina gold-copper project in Colombia, outlining an after-tax net present value (NPV 5%) of $1.0 billion and after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 32.2% at base-case metal prices.

The study contemplates an 11.2-year open-pit mine life, processing 61.3 Mt of ore at 15,000 tpd, with average life-of-mine annual production of 137.0 koz gold equivalent, including 107.7 koz gold, 17.0 Mlbs copper and 248.6 koz silver. Initial capital is estimated at $523.3 million, sustaining capital at $166.0 million and closure at $49.8 million, for total capital of $739.1 million. Operating costs average $29.50/t milled, with total cash costs of $872/oz gold and all-in sustaining costs (AISC) of $1,045/oz gold on a by-product basis.

At higher spot-price assumptions, after-tax NPV (5%) increases to $1,804.1 million and after-tax IRR to 49.1%, with payback improving from 2.7 to 1.9 years. The PEA is preliminary, relies in part on Inferred Mineral Resources and there is no certainty the economic results will be realized.

Positive

  • Strong PEA project economics: After-tax NPV (5%) of approximately $1.0 billion and after-tax IRR of 32.2% at base-case prices versus initial capital of $523.3 million indicate attractive preliminary economics for the La Mina project.

Negative

  • None.

Insights

Updated PEA shows robust La Mina economics but remains early stage.

The updated La Mina study outlines an after-tax NPV (5%) of $1.0 billion and after-tax IRR of 32.2% at base-case prices, against initial capital of $523.3 million. Life-of-mine averages 137.0 koz gold-equivalent production over 11.2 years with AISC of $1,045/oz on a by-product basis.

Economics strengthen materially under spot-price assumptions, with after-tax NPV (5%) at $1,804.1 million, after-tax IRR of 49.1% and payback of 1.9 years, versus 2.7 years in the base case. These figures highlight strong leverage to gold, copper and silver prices and relatively efficient capital intensity for a mid-scale open-pit project.

However, the assessment is preliminary and includes Inferred Mineral Resources, which are geologically and economically less certain than reserves. Actual outcomes will depend on future drilling, detailed engineering, permitting, financing and community and environmental work described as opportunities for further study. These steps will determine whether La Mina advances toward construction.

preliminary economic assessment financial
"updated preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") on the La Mina Project"
A preliminary economic assessment is an initial analysis that estimates the potential profitability and feasibility of a project or resource, such as a new mineral deposit or development venture. It provides a rough idea of costs, benefits, and risks, helping investors decide whether to pursue more detailed studies. This early evaluation is important because it offers a snapshot of whether the project is worth further investment and development.
Net present value (NPV 5%) financial
"Net present value (NPV 5% ) – after-tax"
Internal rate of return (IRR) financial
"Internal rate of return (IRR) – after-tax"
The internal rate of return (IRR) is the annualized percentage return that makes the total value of a project's or investment's future cash flows equal the amount invested today — in other words, the break-even interest rate for that investment. Investors use IRR like a single-number speedometer to compare opportunities: a higher IRR means a project is expected to generate a stronger annual return, helping decide which investments are likely more attractive relative to required returns or alternatives.
All-in sustaining cost (AISC) financial
"AISC (by-product basis) 2"
All-in sustaining cost (AISC) is a per-unit measure of what a mining operation spends to produce its commodity, including routine operating expenses plus the ongoing capital and maintenance needed to keep the operation running. Investors use AISC to compare true production costs across companies and judge profitability and cash flow resilience—think of it like the total cost per mile to operate a car, not just the fuel.
Inferred Mineral Resource financial
"The PEA includes Inferred Mineral Resources, which are considered too speculative"
An inferred mineral resource is an early-stage estimate of the amount and grade of minerals in the ground based on limited sampling and geological evidence; think of it as a rough sketch of where valuable material might be, rather than a detailed blueprint. It matters to investors because it signals potential upside but carries high uncertainty—further drilling and study are needed before it can support mine planning or reliable economic forecasts.
life of mine (LOM) financial
"LOM operating costs are expected to average $29.50/t of material processed"

GoldMining Announces Updated PEA Highlighting $1.0 Billion After-Tax NPV and 32% IRR at La Mina Project, Colombia

 

DESIGNATED NEWS RELEASE

 

Vancouver, British Columbia – April 28, 2026 – GoldMining Inc. (TSX: GOLD; NYSE American: GLDG) (the "Company" or "GoldMining") is pleased to announce the results of an updated preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") on the La Mina Project (the "Project"), located in Antioquia, Colombia.

 

All currency amounts herein are in US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

 

PEA Highlights1

 

 

Enhanced Project Value: The updated PEA incorporates current bench-marked costs and updated base case pricing of $3,500 /oz gold (Au), $4.70/lb copper (Cu) and $40/oz silver (Ag), resulting in a 265% increase in after-tax net present value at 5% discount rate ("NPV5%") from the prior PEA disclosed by the Company for the Project.

 

 

Strong Base Case Economics: After-tax NPV5% of $1.0 billion and an after-tax internal rate of return ("IRR") of 32.2% and initial payback of approximately 2.7 years.

 

 

Leverage to Spot Prices: At current spot prices (approximately, $4,775/oz Au, $5.75/lb Cu, and $77/oz Ag), the after-tax NPV5% increases to approximately $1.8 billion with an IRR of 49.1% and initial payback of 1.9 years.

 

 

High Capital Efficiency: Initial capital expenditures are estimated at $523 million, representing an attractive 0.5x initial capital to base case NPV5% ratio that highlights the Project’s potential for a compelling return on investment.

 

 

Strong Production Profile: Average annual production of 152.4 koz Au equivalent ("AuEq") over the first five years of operation, and total life of mine ("LOM") production of 1.5 Moz AuEq (comprising 1.2 Moz Au, 2.6 Moz Ag, and 195 Mlbs Cu) over an 11.2 year projected mine life.

 

 

Resilient Cost Profile: Estimated total cash cost of $872/oz Au and All-In Sustaining Cost ("AISC") of $1,045/oz Au (calculated on a by-product basis).

 

 

Conventional Operation: The PEA contemplates a conventional open-pit truck-and-shovel operation and a processing rate of 15,000 tonnes per day ("tpd"). A proven processing flowsheet utilizing standard froth flotation and leach circuits achieves high metallurgical recoveries of 91% Au, 80% Cu, and 64% Ag.

 

 

Significant Portfolio Potential: On a gold equivalent basis, the estimated mineral resources contained in the La Mina PEA account for approximately 9% of the Company’s global Measured and Indicated Resources and 16% of the Inferred Resources (refer to the Company’s Annual Information Form dated February 27, 2026).

 

Alastair Still, CEO of GoldMining commented, “The updated Project PEA highlights the underlying quality of the La Mina porphyry gold-copper mineral system and represents just a small portion of and emphasizes the depth of the GoldMining portfolio of projects that we continue to advance. By capturing current market consensus metals pricing, the PEA conceptualizes a robust $1.0 billion base case project that is characterized with an efficient capital intensity. We’re not simply adjusting for the higher commodity prices; we have confirmed that La Mina is potentially a resilient development opportunity. With these solid base case economics, which improve substantially at spot prices, the Company is excited by the opportunity to further advance and de-risk the Project on the path towards potential future development.”

 

 

1 The gold equivalent equations are: AuEq(oz) = Au (g/t) + [Cu(%) x {Cu Price/Au Price} x 22.0462 x 31.1035] + [Ag (g/t) x {Ag Price/Au Price}]. AISC includes mining costs, processing costs, royalties, G&A costs, transportation costs, sustaining capital and closure costs less by-product credits.

The PEA is preliminary in nature, and there is no certainty that the reported results will be realized. The PEA includes Inferred Mineral Resources, which are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves. There is no certainty that this PEA, including the conceptual economics set out therein, will be realized.

La Mina PEA Summary

 

The PEA reviewed and refined mine engineering design work completed during the previous (2023) preliminary economic assessment disclosed by the Company, including updating all operating and capital cost estimates following a comprehensive review of technical inputs, and updating metal price assumptions. No other substantive changes were made during the study.

 

The Project, covering 3,208 hectares, is located in the Department of Antioquia, Republic of Colombia, approximately 51 km southwest of Medellin. The Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for La Mina includes the La Cantera, La Garrucha, and Middle Zone porphyry deposits, which are located within 1,000 meters of each other. No additional drilling has been completed at La Mina in support of this updated PEA, therefore the current MRE with effective date December 20th, 2022, remains current in support of the PEA.

 

The PEA considers a conventional drill, blast, load, and haul open pit operation mining an average of 97,000 tpd over the 11.2 year life of mine. It contemplates that resources will be processed at a nominal rate of 15,000 tpd by conventional grinding and flotation to generate a copper concentrate, with tailings of the copper process reporting to a leach circuit to generate gold-silver doré on site. The combined LOM average metallurgical recovery of 91%, 80% and 64% are realized for gold, copper and silver, respectively.

 

The PEA includes on-site development including mining, haul roads, access roads, process facilities, tailings and waste storage facilities, and related ancillary facilities. Construction is anticipated to take approximately two years with an initial capital expenditure of $523.3 million with operations continuing for 11.2 years. Sustaining capital expenditures over the LOM are expected to be approximately $166 million, consisting of a mix of mining capital equipment and staged expansion of the tailings and waste facilities. LOM operating costs are expected to average $29.50/t of material processed.

 

Under the PEA, highest metal production occurs in the initial five years of production averaging 152.4 koz AuEq comprising 126 koz Au, 22.4 Mlbs Cu, and 273 koz Ag annual production. Year 1 production of 176.5 koz AuEq comprises 138 koz Au, 27.0 Mlbs Cu, and 174.8 koz Ag. LOM average production is 137.0 koz AuEq, comprising 107.7 koz Au, 17.0 Mlbs Cu, and 248.6 koz Ag.

 

The LOM average mining rate in the PEA is 5.5 Mt resources per annum and 30.1 Mt waste, which equates to an average LOM strip ratio of 5.5:1.

Notes:

 

 

1.

The qualified person for the above estimate is Scott Wilson, C.P.G, SME.

 

2.

Mineral Resources are classified as Indicated Resources and Inferred Resources and are based on the 2014 CIM Definition Standards. The estimation of Indicated Mineral Resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than the estimation of Mineral Reserves, and therefore investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. The estimation of Inferred Mineral Resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic viability than the estimation of other categories of Mineral Resources.

 

3.

Numbers may not add up due to rounding.

 

4.

Cut-Off Grade: 0.30 g/t Au.

 

5.

The Mineral Resource Estimate was based on US$ metal prices of $3.50/lb Cu, $1,700/oz Au and $21/oz Ag.

 

6.

Gold-equivalent grades were calculated using the following formula: AuEq = Au (g/t) + [Cu(%) x {Cu Price/Au Price} x 22.0462 x 31.1035] + [Ag (g/t) x {Ag Price/Au Price}].

 

7.

The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Mineral Resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these Inferred Mineral Resources as Indicated or Measured Mineral Resources.

 

8.

There are no known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, marketing, political or other relevant factors that may materially affect the Mineral Resource Estimate.
