Alkane Managing Director & CEO, Nic Earner, said:

“With $232 million of cash and bullion at December 2025, which has grown during the March quarter, Alkane remains well funded to develop organic growth projects across our three operations². The new facilities allow us to broaden our relationships with tier-1 banks and provide additional liquidity to move quickly on emerging opportunities. Additionally, the contingent instrument facility will provide up to $40 million of cash returned to the business that is currently used for backing performance guarantees across the group’s operations.”

Alkane’s operations are performing strongly. Alkane expects to provide a March 2026 quarter production update in the coming weeks, ahead of the March 2026 quarterly activities report to be released later in April 2026.
