Company Interview / Green & Gold's golden debut

Key points:

Green and Gold Minerals starts trading with 32,000oz of gold and silver creditsCompany targets rapid resource growth and a million-ounce discovery within its tenements Timing highlighted as strong due to recent surge in gold price and explorers index Near-term production pathway, undervalued entry price, and imminent news flow asserted

Green and Gold Minerals (ASX:GG1) has commenced trading on the ASX, marking a significant step for the North Queensland-based explorer, according to Quentin Hill. Hill highlights eight years of groundwork, beginning with the acquisition of the Mount Wanda mining leases, which has developed into a resource with 32,000 ounces of gold at 1.1g per tonne, plus an additional 10% silver credits. The company aims to expand this to 100,000 ounces, with aspirational targets of a million-ounce discovery within its wider tenement package.

Hill points to a favourable timing in the gold sector, noting the Australian dollar gold price has surged to $6,000, and the explorers index has climbed 150% since the company priced its listing three months prior. Green and Gold Minerals differentiates itself with existing mining leases, a clear path to near-term production, and local infrastructure already in place. Hill claims the company is currently undervalued due to its initial pricing when gold was 20% lower, offering a compelling entry for investors.

Drilling activities are underway, with Hill indicating that resource upgrades and a mining study are expected by the second quarter of next year. He maintains an optimistic outlook regarding both short and long-term prospects for gold and Green and Gold Minerals’ progression to production.
