Orla Mining (ORLA) Stock Price, News & Analysis

Company Overview

Orla Mining is a Canada-based mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing gold and silver projects in the Americas. Its flagship asset is the Cerro Quema oxide gold-silver project in Panama, where the company holds approximately 13,000 hectares of mineral concessions. Through feasibility studies and pilot plant testing, Orla has demonstrated the potential of heap leach processing at Cerro Quema, positioning the asset for transition into construction and production phases.

In addition to Cerro Quema, Orla Mining expanded its portfolio in early 2023 with the acquisition of the Gold Springs project located along the Utah–Nevada border in the United States. Gold Springs hosts multiple oxide gold and silver deposits amenable to low-cost heap leach mining methods. Together, these projects provide diversification across two jurisdictions and reflect the company’s strategy of targeting near-surface, heap-leachable mineralization with scalable production profiles.

Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Orla is led by President and Chief Executive Officer George Paspalas, whose team brings experience in project development, corporate finance, and mine operations. The company emphasizes community engagement and environmental stewardship in all its activities, working closely with local stakeholders in Panama and the U.S. to advance its projects toward commercial production.
