Allied Gold Corporation (NYSE: AAUC) reported that its mining operations in Mali and Côte d'Ivoire continue operating normally despite ongoing conflicts between government and insurgent groups in Mali, according to a company statement.

The Toronto-based gold producer said its mines, including the Sadiola Gold Mine in western Mali's Kayes Region, are operating at distances far from the conflict areas. The company completed the first phase expansion at Sadiola and said production activities are proceeding as expected.

Allied Gold's development project in Ethiopia, the Kurmuk mine, remains on schedule with production expected to begin in the third quarter of 2026. The company reported that exploration efforts across its portfolio continue to yield results that support extending mine lives at all operations.

The company provided an update on its pending acquisition by Zijin Gold International Company Limited under an arrangement agreement dated January 26, 2026. Allied Gold and Zijin Gold are working to obtain regulatory approvals required to complete the transaction, with a closing deadline of May 29, 2026, subject to potential extensions.

Allied Gold said it continues monitoring the security situation in Mali and taking precautions to ensure employee safety. The company operates three producing assets across Côte d'Ivoire, Mali, and Ethiopia.

The information was disclosed in a company press release statement.
