What Goldstone Resources does
Goldstone Resources Limited is an AIM-listed gold producer and exploration company (LON:GRL) headquartered in St. Helier, Jersey, with operational presence in West Africa. The company operates the Homase Mine in Ghana's Ashanti Gold Belt, which produces gold through a heap leach circuit comprising multiple heap leach pads, including Pad 6 — the largest pad recently approved by the Minerals Commission. First gold pour at Homase occurred in January 2022 and Q1 2026 production was 480 troy ounces, with 36,268 tonnes of ore stacked and 19.99 kg of gold in process. The company also holds the Akrokeri Ashanti Mine (an exploration-stage former underground mine that historically produced 75,000 oz at approximately 24g/t Au before being abandoned in 1909) and has expanded into Sierra Leone's Wandor Province via a partnership with MinCorp (SL) Limited.
The underlying technology is conventional heap leach gold processing, supplemented by exploration drilling programmes intended to expand JORC-compliant resource estimates. A £2.0 million subscription completed in February 2026 allocated approximately £1.4 million to a 4,000-5,000 metre drilling programme at Homase. Goldstone is financially and technically supported by major shareholders Paracale Gold Ltd and Asian Investment Management Services Ltd (AIMS), with AIMS also acting as creditor under a gold loan extended to December 31, 2026.
The business model is straightforward commodity sales: gold produced at the Homase Mine is sold into the global gold market via direct sales, with revenue directly correlated to ounces produced and prevailing gold prices. The company employs 11-50 staff and has a market capitalisation of approximately £11.93 million as of April 2026. Distribution is global through the gold market; the AIM listing provides equity distribution to public investors on the London Stock Exchange.

Goldstone Resources competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Cardinal Resources: Junior gold developer previously focused on Ghana's Namdini Gold Project before acquisition. Comparable as a Ghana Ashanti Belt-focused junior at similar developmental stage, illustrating the M&A exit pathway for AIM-quoted juniors.
- Hummingbird Resources: AIM-listed junior gold producer with operations in West Africa (Liberia). Directly comparable as a small-cap gold producer using heap leach processing in a similar West African jurisdiction.
- Asante Gold: Junior gold developer/producer focused on the Ashanti Gold Belt in Ghana. Directly comparable given shared geological setting and Ghana operational focus.
- Newcore Gold: Junior gold exploration and development company focused on the Enchi Gold Project in Ghana's Ashanti Belt. Comparable as a small-cap Ghana-focused gold developer at a similar stage.
- Avesoro Resources: West African gold producer with operations in Liberia and Guinea. Comparable as a small-mid cap AIM-listed gold producer focused on West African heap leach operations.
Broad incumbents
- Perseus Mining: Mid-tier gold producer operating in Ghana (Edikan) and Côte d'Ivoire. Comparable as a Ghana-based gold producer, though at materially larger scale and with multiple operating mines.
- AngloGold Ashanti: Major gold producer operating the neighbouring Obuasi Gold Mine on the Ashanti Belt. Relevant as the geological incumbent whose former operations and 70M oz resource define the regional prospectivity.
- Endeavour Mining: Senior West African gold producer with multiple operating mines including in Ghana. Comparable as a Ghana-focused gold producer, though at significantly larger scale.
- Resolute Mining: Mid-tier gold producer with historical and current operations in West Africa (Ghana, Mali). Comparable as a regional West Africa-focused gold producer with similar jurisdictional exposure.
- B2Gold: Intermediate gold producer with diversified West African operations including Mali. Comparable as a gold producer with active West African mine portfolio, though at much larger scale.
