Orvana Minerals Corp. (TSX: ORV) is excited to share its production and exploration results for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024. This update reflects comprehensive mining activities, demonstrating Orvana's commitment to maximizing operational efficiency.
Production Highlights
The fourth quarter of FY2024 delivered impressive production figures, underscoring the company’s strategic focus on maintaining strong output despite some challenges.

For the entire fiscal year, Orvana's production totaled 44,591 gold equivalent ounces, with notable contributions from gold and silver, reinforcing the company’s position in the mining sector.
Drilling and Exploration Progress
During Q4 FY2024, the drilling program was a focal point, comprising 2,462 meters of infill and brownfield drilling. Significant intercepts in Area 208 included impressive metrics such as:
- DDH 24A21939: 17.25 m @ 3.06 g/t Au
- DDH 24A21943: 6.00 m @ 13.69 g/t Au
- DDH 24A21946: 43.30m @ 6.41 g/t Au
- DDH 24A21947: 3.55m @ 18.53 g/t Au
- DDH 24A21948: 13.50 m @ 10.33 g/t Au
This exploration work aims to convert inferred resources into indicated resources, essential for future production planning.
Quarterly Production Performance
During Q4 FY2024, the mill processed 139,275 tonnes of ore, which was slightly lower than anticipated due to a six-day operational stoppage for maintenance tasks. Consequently, both gold and copper production were down 9% and 3% in comparison to the previous quarter.
Despite these challenges, the overall production metrics illustrate Orvana’s resilience and robust operational strategies designed to enhance production stability moving forward.
Market Outlook and CEO Insights
CEO Juan Gavidia expressed optimism about the company’s direction. He emphasized, "The outlook for gold and copper prices continues to be favorable. We are committed to prioritizing safety, maintaining stable production levels, and managing costs to optimize free cash flow. Our focus remains on leveraging the positive market dynamics into 2025 and beyond."
Orvana's exploration strategy includes a focus on the Ortosa-Godan project areas, which are promising in terms of mineral potential and resource generation.
Future Directions
