Cerrado Gold, operating under the stock symbol CRDOF, has received the third and final advance of $7 million from Hochschild Mining's subsidiary, Amarillo Mineração do Brasil. This brings total funds from the Signing Loan to $15 million. According to the option agreement, upon shareholder approval, the loan and associated interest will be repaid by setting off an equivalent amount from the purchase price due by Amarillo. If shareholders don't approve the transaction by June 30, 2024, the loan will mature on September 30, 2024, but Hochschild may accelerate it from July 1, 2024.

Cerrado Gold has released their Q4 and year-end 2023 financial results for their Minera Don Nicolas (MDN) gold project in Argentina. The company reported an annual production of 52,230 gold equivalent ounces (GEO) and a Q4 adjusted EBITDA of $0.8 million, with the annual figure reaching $13.8 million. The All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) for Q4 stood at $1,594 per ounce, and the annual AISC was $1,427 per ounce. Despite delays in the ramp-up of their Las Calandrias Heap Leach due to crusher issues, production levels improved significantly from March to May 2024, averaging over 6,000 GEO per month. The company's annual revenue was $100.1 million, up from $90.4 million in 2022, while the net loss for 2023 was $6.8 million compared to a $5.9 million loss in 2022. High production costs and increased tax expenses contributed to the losses. The company aims to stabilize operations, reduce debt, and focus on cash flow and exploration activities to extend mine life.

The company expects to file its audited financial statements for 2023 this week, a condition for receiving a US$7 million advance from Hochschild Mining's subsidiary.
The third advance will complete a US$15 million interest-bearing loan, which will be repaid if Cerrado secures shareholder approval for selling its Monte Do Carmo project for US$60 million.
If approval is not obtained by June 30, the loan matures on September 30, but Hochschild may accelerate repayment starting July 1.
Cerrado Gold has provided an update regarding the cease trade order (CTO) issued on May 7, 2024, by the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) due to the company's failure to file its audited annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2023. The filings were initially due by April 29, 2024.
Despite efforts to work with auditors KPMG LLP, Cerrado expects to complete and file the annual statements by June 6, 2024. Consequently, the company anticipates missing the May 30, 2024, deadline for its interim financial statements for the first quarter of 2024. An application for a management cease trade order (MCTO) was denied as the CTO is already in effect and will remain until the interim filings are completed, expected two weeks post-annual filings.
No insolvency proceedings or undisclosed material information were reported.
