What Borealis Mining Company Ltd does

Borealis Mining Company Ltd is a publicly traded junior gold producer (TSXV: BOGO, OTCQB: BORMF, FWB: L4B0) headquartered in Toronto with operating assets in Nevada. The company's core asset is the 100%-owned, fully permitted Borealis Mine near Hawthorne, Nevada, which has historically produced over 600,000 ounces of gold through conventional open-pit heap leach mining with on-site adsorption-desorption-recovery (ADR) processing into doré bars. The company also holds the Sandman Gold Project in Humboldt County, Nevada (acquired via the March 2025 Gold Bull Resources acquisition), which carries a 2026 PEA outlining ~340,000 oz of life-of-mine production at US$1,823/oz AISC, US$203M post-tax NPV, and 105% IRR at US$2,600/oz gold, plus the early-stage Big Balds exploration project near Elko, NV.

Borealis's business model is direct-to-refinery commodity production: doré bars are sold outright to precious metals refiners, with Asahi Refining (Salt Lake City) and Just Refiners (Reno) as named counterparties. Revenue is therefore a function of realized gold and silver prices multiplied by ounces poured. The company is pursuing a hub-and-spoke operating model in which the Borealis ADR facility would process loaded carbon trucked from satellite deposits such as Sandman, with a stated long-term production target of greater than 100,000 ounces per annum.

Q2 FY2026 revenue was US$1.42M, climbing to a record US$6.1M in Q3 FY2026 as the company completed its first production blast and ramped material movement to 602,000 tons moved and 45,000 tons crushed. The balance sheet is well-capitalized at US$21.13M cash and US$26.7M working capital, supported by cumulative equity raises of approximately C$66M since June 2024 across four rounds. Strategic direction is led by President & CEO Kelly Malcolm (former VP Exploration at Amex, credited with the Detour Gold 58N discovery) under Non-Executive Chairman Robert Buchan, founder of Kinross Gold.
