\nVista Gold Corp. (NYSE American and TSX: VGZ) today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, with cash totaling $13.7 million at quarter-end. All dollar amounts in this press release are in U.S. dollars.<\/p>\n
\nFrederick H. Earnest, President and CEO of Vista, said, \u201cIn the third quarter, Vista completed a feasibility study for Mt Todd that presents a fresh vision for the project as a 15,000 tonne per day operation \u2013 one that prioritizes lower initial capital costs and higher ore grades. It also incorporates proven Australian design and operating practices that reduce risk, simplify construction, and support long-term operational success over a 30-year mine life.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThe 2025 Feasibility Study confirms the substantial intrinsic value of the Mt Todd gold project at conservative long-term gold prices, yielding after-tax NPV5%<\/sub> of $1.1 billion, IRR of 27.8%, and a 2.7 year payback period at a $2,500 per ounce gold price.<\/p>\n \n\u201cToday, with much higher gold prices and growing investor interest, Mt Todd is positioned as a premier development opportunity. Its strong project economics, favorable jurisdiction, permitting status, and existing infrastructure make it well-suited for near-term development. We are confident that this is the right market environment in which to advance Mt Todd.\u201d<\/p>\n \nMr. Earnest concluded, \u201cWe are pursuing modifications to existing permits and completing technical work in advance of a decision to commence detailed engineering. We continue to prioritize the efficient use of our cash as we execute our corporate strategy to create long-term value for our shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n \nFor more information on the 2025 Feasibility Study, please refer to the technical report summary entitled \u201cS-K 1300 Technical Report Summary \u2013 Mt Todd Gold Project \u2013 15 ktpd Feasibility Study \u2013 Northern Territory, Australia\u201d with an effective date of July 29, 2025 and an issue date of September 11, 2025, available at www.sec.gov<\/a> or, for Canadian purposes, the technical report entitled \u201cNI 43-101 Technical Report \u2013 Mt Todd Gold Project \u2013 15 ktpd Feasibility Study \u2013 Northern Territory, Australia\u201d with an effective date of July 29, 2025 and an issue date of September 11, 2025, under Vista\u2019s profile at www.sedarplus.ca<\/a>.
