The announcement was made today (Wednesday), with the mine, roughly 160 kilometres southwest of Prince George, completing the pour of gold and silver.

President Jeremy Langford said “While still in commissioning, Blackwater’s crushing circuit has displayed sustained crushing operations above its prescribed nameplate throughput.”

“The milling circuit is also performing in line with expectations at this stage of the commissioning and ramp-up phase.”

Artemis Gold added its commercial production targeted date remains for the second quarter of 2025.
