What did Ramelius Resources report?

What else do investors need to know?

During the quarter, Ramelius executed the sale of its Edna May hub to Forrestania Resources for a revised consideration of A$210 million in cash and A$90 million in FRS shares, with completion targeted for the September 2026 quarter. Upon completion, Ramelius will become a 9.6% shareholder in FRS, continuing to benefit from regional gold expansion.

Operationally, key project developments included the ongoing ramp-up at Never Never and Dalgaranga, advances on the Mt Magnet processing plants and camp expansions, and progress on the hybrid power project. Exploration activities are on track, with a further update due later in July.

What’s next for Ramelius Resources?

Looking ahead, Ramelius expects to finalise and report full financials, including AISC, in its upcoming quarterly report. Key capital projects—including Stage 1 and 2 expansions at Mt Magnet and camp upgrades—are progressing to plan with further milestones slated for the September 2026 quarter.

The company remains focused on disciplined growth, maintaining strong shareholder returns through dividends and buybacks, and value creation through exploration and strategic investments. The imminent completion of the Edna May hub sale will provide additional capital and ongoing exposure to the region’s potential via its FRS shareholding.
