2340 GMT - Westgold Resources may have retained its annual guidance following a soft 2Q, but Macquarie expects the miner to miss that target slightly. Westgold continues to expect production of 400,000-420,000 troy ounces of gold at an all-in sustaining cost of A$2,000-A$2,300/oz in FY 2025. "We note that year-to-date Westgold has produced 39% versus the mid-point of FY 2025 production guidance and 40% of the guidance bottom-end," Macquarie says. It now tips production of 395,000 oz at an all-in sustaining cost of A$2,334/oz. Still, its new assumptions require a 49% half-on-half lift in production, driven by the ramp up of the Bluebird underground mine, Beta Hunt and the addition of some ounces from the new Great Fingall mine in 4Q.
