Deccan Gold Mines has achieved a significant operational milestone by producing its first gold doré at the Altyn Tor Project in Kyrgyzstan. This successful production validates the upgraded processing flowsheet and metallurgical recovery rates under live conditions, substantially de-risking future commercial production. The company is now accelerating its transition from an explorer to a gold producer. This development confirms the project's operational viability and strengthens confidence in its commercial potential, with plans for full-scale production, plant optimization, and resource expansion to enhance long-term shareholder value.
