G2 Goldfields has announced a significant achievement with its latest mineral resource estimation showing over 3 million ounces of gold at its Oko-Aremu project in Guyana. This marks the company's third resource update, steadily growing from just over 1 million ounces in its first estimation to now exceeding 3 million ounces.
The company completed 59,000 meters of drilling last year, primarily at the Ghanie deposit, successfully connecting previously separate zones into a continuous 2.5-kilometer mineralized shear zone. The project features two distinct mineralization styles: the high-grade OKO Main Zone, where shears 3, 4, and 5 contain approximately 960,000 ounces averaging 9 g/t gold, and the Ghanie deposit with both high-grade footwall zones (7 g/t) and disseminated hanging wall mineralization (1 g/t).
CEO Dan Noone highlighted the project's robust nature regardless of cut-off grade parameters, stating, "The deposit isn't sensitive to cut-off grade... The ounces always seem to be there; it doesn't really matter what parameters we put in."
The project demonstrates excellent metallurgical performance with gold recoveries averaging 98.5% at OKO Main Zone and 94.2% at Ghanie, with no problematic elements present in the mineralization. This clean metallurgical profile makes the deposit well-suited for gravity recovery methods, potentially reducing both capital and operating expenses.
G2 Goldfields is currently operating two drill rigs targeting higher-grade zones at depth and along strike. Recent drilling has shown promising results, with visible gold observed in step-out holes. The company is also exploring additional targets including OKO North and an area called Birdcage.
With approximately $37 million in cash, G2 is well-funded for continued exploration without requiring additional financing. AngloGold Ashanti holds nearly 15% ownership in the company, and multiple mining companies have reviewed their data room under active non-disclosure agreements, suggesting potential acquisition interest.
The proximity to G Mining's neighboring project creates potential synergies that could be attractive to acquirers. Noone noted, "It's obvious to anybody that this is really one big 5-kilometer long deposit... not much different to the Kalgoorlie Super Pit which had three mines on it, or Red Lake, or Kirkland Lake. And so there's obvious synergies here."
Looking ahead to 2025, Noone hopes to see gold prices remain strong above $3,000 per ounce and make additional discoveries along the main shear trend comparable to OKO Main Zone or Ghanie.
