Fortitude Gold Corporation is a U.S.-based gold producer and exploration company traded on the OTC Markets under the symbol FTCO. The company’s principal asset is the Pan Mine, an open-pit, heap-leach gold operation located on the prolific Carlin Trend in Elko County, Nevada. Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Fortitude Gold Mining Company, it focuses on the extraction, processing and sale of gold dore bars to regional refineries.
The Pan Mine employs conventional open-pit mining techniques followed by carbon-in-leach processing to recover gold from low-grade ore. Fortitude Gold also holds additional exploration ground along the Carlin Trend corridor, targeting both oxide and sulfide mineralization. Its technical team oversees all aspects of mine development, production scheduling and environmental compliance, with a view to optimizing operating efficiency and extending mine life through ongoing resource expansion drilling.
Commercial production at the Pan Mine commenced in April 2018, marking Fortitude Gold’s transition from exploration to cash-flow-generating operations. Headquartered in Elko, Nevada, the company benefits from proximity to established mining infrastructure and a skilled local workforce. Fortitude Gold maintains active engagement with state regulatory agencies and area stakeholders to support sustainable development practices and community partnerships.
Leadership is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Todd R. Hildahl, who brings more than two decades of experience in mine operations and mineral project development. Under his direction, Fortitude Gold continues to pursue opportunities to augment its resource base and explore synergistic acquisitions, with the goal of building long-term shareholder value through disciplined capital allocation and operational excellence.
