In the Alexforbes Lead Story:
Namibia’s Otjikoto Mine delivered strong gold production in 2025, performing near the top of its target range, with a strong final quarter boosted by high-grade stockpiles. Costs came in lower than expected, but output is set to decline in 2026 as the mine transitions to underground operations, with higher costs anticipated. Angie Scholtz is joined by John Roos, the Director and Country Manager for B2Gold Namibia.
