What else do investors need to know?

The December quarter capped Greatland’s first full year of owning the Telfer operation, in which it produced over 335,000 ounces of gold and 14,000 tonnes of copper, generating approximately $1.3 billion in cash flow. The company invested $61.2 million in Telfer growth capex and completed more than 54,000 metres of resource development drilling, with exploration progress targeting potential mine life extensions.

Safety remained a focus, with just one lost time injury during the quarter and improved TRIFR safety metrics. Greatland also strengthened future prospects by completing the Havieron Feasibility Study and securing a $500 million corporate debt facility commitment with a syndicate of major Australian banks, although the company remains debt free at quarter end.

What did Greatland Resources management say?

Managing Director Shaun Day said:

We are pleased to have delivered another strong operational performance in the December quarter, with gold production of 86,273 ounces at an AISC of $2,196 per ounce… Conclusion of the December quarter completes our first full 12 months of ownership of Telfer in which we produced over 335,000 ounces of gold and 14,000 tonnes of copper, generated ~$1.3 billion cash flow from operations, and built our net cash by ~$800 million. An important milestone was achieved during the quarter with the completion and release of the results of the Havieron Feasibility Study which confirmed the pathway to a world-class, long-life, lowest quartile cost Australian gold-copper mine.

What’s next for Greatland Resources?

Looking ahead, Greatland expects full-year FY26 production to reach the upper end of its 260,000–310,000 ounce gold guidance range, while aiming for AISC at the lower end of the $2,400–$2,800 per ounce range. Development of the Havieron project is now underpinned by both strong internal cash generation and a $500 million debt commitment, with first gold targeted roughly 2.5 years after receiving environmental approvals.

Ongoing drilling programs at Telfer and Havieron are set to support further growth and potential life extensions, with resource estimates due for key underground targets in early 2026.
