Equinox Gold (EQX) has completed its acquisition of Calibre Mining Corp., creating a major Americas-focused gold producer. The merger positions Equinox Gold to become Canada's second-largest gold producer, anchored by two key Canadian assets: the Greenstone Gold Mine in Ontario and the Valentine Gold Mine in Newfoundland & Labrador.

Pro forma consolidated guidance expects 785,000-915,000 gold ounces at total cash costs of $1,400-$1,500/oz and AISC of $1,800-$1,900/oz. Greenstone's production forecast is reduced to 220,000-260,000 ounces from original 300,000-350,000 due to equipment issues and lower grades. Q2 2025 expects 135,000-145,000 ounces from Equinox mines and 70,000-72,500 ounces from Calibre. The Calibre merger should close by June 2025.
