Skouries commissioning and McIlvenna Bay acquisition drive EGO's growth story

Skouries first ore crushed, on track for Q3 production Eldorado crushed first ore at its Skouries copper-gold project in Greece, a key step toward production. The mine is 97% built and expected to start producing in the third quarter of 2026. This adds a major new source of revenue and growth for the company.
This is a new operational milestone that directly increases future production and revenue for EGO.
Q2 results solid; guidance includes new McIlvenna Bay mine Eldorado reported strong Q2 earnings with revenue of $487.5 million and net income of $172.8 million. It updated 2026 gold production guidance to 495,000–600,000 ounces, including initial output from the newly acquired McIlvenna Bay mine in Canada. This shows the company is growing and financially healthy.
New financial results and updated guidance give investors a clearer picture of EGO's earnings power and growth.
McIlvenna Bay concentrate shipments to start via Hudson Bay Railway Eldorado Gold Saskatchewan will soon ship concentrate from the McIlvenna Bay mine via the Hudson Bay Railway. This follows Eldorado's acquisition of Foran Mining and marks the start of a new revenue stream from Canada, supporting the company's expanded production base.
This is a new logistics development that confirms the McIlvenna Bay mine is moving toward commercial production and sales.
Gold price swings drive EGO volatility EGO fell nearly 13% in late June as gold dropped below $4,000 on Fed rate hike fears, but rebounded 12% in early August as gold climbed on easing U.S.-Iran tensions. Gold's price remains the biggest short-term driver of EGO's stock, and it can move sharply in both directions.
This explains the main external force behind EGO's price swings and reminds investors that gold price risk remains.

Gold rally and major Laos resource upgrade drive Chifeng Gold higher

Weak US jobs data and Fed rate hold lift gold prices Weak US jobs data and the Fed holding rates steady pushed gold prices up, making gold miners like Chifeng more attractive. Lower rate hike odds support gold demand, which directly boosts Chifeng's revenue and stock price.
This explains the main macro force behind the stock's recent gains.
Gold demand outpaces supply, supporting higher prices Global gold demand is growing much faster than mine supply, with central banks buying heavily. This imbalance supports higher gold prices, which increases Chifeng's profits and makes its stock more valuable.
This structural supply-demand gap is a key long-term driver for gold miners.
