Caledonia Mining (CMCL) Stock Price, News & Analysis

Company Overview

Caledonia Mining Corporation PLC (NYSEAMERICAN:CMCL) is a gold mining company whose principal asset is the Blanket Gold Mine in Zimbabwe. The company is publicly traded on the NYSE American Exchange and the London AIM market, providing investors with exposure to gold production in a jurisdiction with a long history of mining activity. Caledonia Mining focuses on the exploration, development and operation of gold-bearing properties, seeking to enhance shareholder value through sustainable production growth and disciplined capital allocation.

The Blanket Gold Mine features both open-pit and underground operations, supported by on-site processing facilities that use conventional carbon-in-leach technology to extract gold from ore. In addition to its core production activities, Caledonia maintains an active exploration programme targeting adjacent deposits and regional prospects in the Midlands Province. The company places a strong emphasis on responsible mining practices, working closely with local communities to support social and economic development while minimising environmental impact.

Founded as a dedicated gold producer in 2006, Caledonia Mining traces its roots back to early 20th-century operations at Blanket, which first began producing gold in 1904. Since acquiring the mine, the company has undertaken a series of investment and expansion projects designed to extend reserve life and improve operational efficiencies. Caledonia’s leadership team, led by Chief Executive Officer Steve Curtis, combines deep industry expertise with a commitment to good corporate governance and transparency. While Zimbabwe remains the core focus of its operations, the company actively evaluates opportunities elsewhere in the African gold belt to diversify its asset base over time.
