Blackwater Mine sees successful quarter to close out inaugural operating year

Blackwater Mine ended its inaugural operating year with a record quarterly production.

This comes from the quarter four (Q4) results from Artemis Gold Inc., announcing the mine, 160 kilometres southwest of Prince George, produced 68,480 ounces of gold.

It’s a 12 per cent increase when compared to the previous quarter, bringing the full production of 2025 to 192,808 ounces of gold.

The company said the increase was primarily driven by higher mill feed grades and higher processing recoveries.

Looking to this year, the company’s production guidance expects between 265,000 to 290,000 ounces of gold.

Full production results for 2025 and financials will be announced on February 18th, 2026, after the close of markets.
