Canadian-based IAMGOLD Corp. said the C\u00f4t\u00e9 Gold mine in Ontario, which it operates as a joint venture with Sumitomo Metal Mining, has reached commercial production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince achieving the first pour of gold on March 31, 2024, our teams have spent the last four months methodically and iteratively testing and ramping up all facets of the mine. This process has required remarkable commitment, ingenuity and teamwork to bring all the systems online together to achieve this milestone,\u201d said President and CEO Renaud Adams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith commercial production behind us we continue to focus on improving plant availability towards our goal of C\u00f4t\u00e9 exiting the year at 90% of nameplate throughput.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IAMGOLD said the ramp up of the plant continues to progress, with all major equipment demonstrating the capability to operate at or above design levels. Next month, the producer will shut down the plant for multiple days to address and mitigate the impact of traditional wear and tear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
