Kinross Gold (KGC) said Thursday that it will proceed with the construction of its Kettle River-Curlew project in Washington, and the Round Mountain Phase X and Bald Mountain Redbird 2 projects in Nevada.
Capital expenditures related to the projects' development in 2026 are estimated at $425 million, which the company said it plans to fund from operating cash flows.
The projects are expected to deliver three million Au-equivalent ounces of life-of-mine production to the company's US portfolio, extend mine lives of Nevada operations into the 2030s, and improve long-term costs in the US, Kinross Gold added.
