Aura Minerals (AUGO) Stock Price, News & Analysis

Company Overview

We are an Americas gold and copper production company with a significant portfolio of mining operations. Our mission is to deliver long-term value by unlocking operational efficiencies, responsibly growing our portfolio with a focus on return on invested capital, responsible mining practices and a commitment to sustainability. We operate with a decentralized culture, supported by a lean corporate team that ensures agile and dynamic management and decision-making processes, focused on high operational sustainability compliance standards. We believe that our success as a gold and copper mining company is the result of a combination of strategic acquisitions, mine expansions and development and efficiency improvements. Backed by a traditional Brazilian family of seasoned gold-focused entrepreneurs and mine developers, as well as a new management team, we have undergone a significant transformation since 2016, enhancing our profitability, replenishing resources and even extending the life-of-mine (LOM) across our operating assets, while also facilitating inorganic expansion — consistently guided by a disciplined commitment to value creation and sustainable growth. We have a track record of expanding and building new mines on-time and on-budget, with ramp-up capabilities, consistent cash flow generation and dividend payments while delivering an attractive return on investment. Our disciplined cost management ensures efficiency in reserve development while we strive to serve as the benchmark for operational security and excellence in project development. Strategically, we prioritize high-IRR (Internal Rate of Return) growth opportunities, balancing capital appreciation with reliable dividend distributions. We currently operate four wholly-owned operating mines and one mine in ramp-up phase. Our operating mines are the Aranzazu copper-gold-silver mine in Mexico, the Apoena and Almas gold mines in Brazil and the Minosa gold mine in Honduras. Additionally, we own and operate the Borborema gold mine in Brazil, which is currently in its ramp-up phase and is expected to achieve commercial production by the third quarter of 2025. In addition to our operating mines, our main development projects are the Era Dorada gold project in Guatemala and the Matupá gold project in Brazil. We have significant exploration potential, owning over 563,558 hectares of mineral rights, and we are currently advancing multiple near-mine and regional targets along with the Carajás (Serra da Estrela) copper project in the prolific Carajás region of Brazil. Our registered office is located the British Virgin Islands.
