An announcement from Aura Minerals ( (AUGO) ) is now available.
On February 26, 2026, Aura Minerals announced it had signed a cooperation agreement with Brazil’s DNIT to relocate a federal road that crosses its Borborema gold mine, removing a key physical constraint on pit expansion. The company also released an updated feasibility study and technical report, enabling conversion of more Indicated Resources into Probable Reserves and sharply expanding the mine plan.
Following the road-relocation agreement and updated study, Borborema’s Probable Mineral Reserves increased by 82% to about 1.5 million ounces of gold, based on 40.7 million tonnes at 1.13 g/t. The new plan outlines a 20.5‑year mine life with average annual production of 65,000 ounces and estimates an after-tax NPV of $612.5 million and IRR of 42.8%, materially strengthening Aura’s project economics and long-term growth profile while leaving further exploration upside open.
The most recent analyst rating on (AUGO) stock is a Buy with a $101.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Aura Minerals stock, see the AUGO Stock Forecast page.
