Snowline Gold Corp. Announces Promising Preliminary Economic Assessment for Valley Gold Deposit
Vancouver, Canada — Snowline Gold Corp., a materials sector company specializing in gold exploration and mining services, has released the results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its Valley Gold Deposit at the Rogue Project in Yukon, Canada. The announcement, made on June 23, 2025, highlights the potential of one of Canada’s largest undeveloped gold deposits.
The PEA projects a life of mine (LOM) payable production of 6.8 million ounces of gold over 20 years. The study forecasts significant production metrics, with an annual average gold production of 544,000 ounces at all-in sustaining costs (AISC) of US$569 per ounce for the first five years. These figures underscore the project’s potential for high margins and robust economic returns.
Financially, the project boasts a post-tax net present value (NPV5%) of C$3.37 billion at a 5% discount rate, assuming a gold price of US$2,150 per ounce. This value increases to C$6.80 billion at a gold price of US$3,150 per ounce. The internal rate of return (IRR) is projected at 25% at US$2,150 per ounce, rising to 37% at US$3,150 per ounce, indicating compelling returns with significant leverage to gold prices.
The initial capital expenditure of C$1.7 billion is expected to be paid back over 2.7 years at US$2,150 per ounce, decreasing to 2.1 years at US$3,150 per ounce. This rapid payback period highlights the project’s financial viability and attractiveness to investors.
The PEA envisions a conventional open-pit mining operation processing 25,000 tonnes per day. Snowline Gold Corp. is currently advancing fieldwork and engineering studies on-site to inform future technical studies. Additionally, extensive regional exploration and drilling are underway to identify complementary resources.
Snowline Gold Corp., listed on the Canadian National Stock Exchange, continues to gain momentum with its strategic initiatives in the Yukon region. The company’s market capitalization stands at C$1.26 billion, with a price-to-earnings ratio of -40.38, reflecting its growth potential in the gold mining sector.
