London, United Kingdom, 24 May 2019 — Nord Gold SE (Nordgold or the Company), the internationally diversified gold producer, announces its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended 31 March 2019.
2018 was a year of transition, as we launched the Gross mine and made a series of investments in our operations to better position Nordogld for long term sustained growth. In 2019, the first quarter has begun as expected. We have seen some impact on our heap leach operations in Russia from the cold winter, but I am pleased to report we are now starting to realise the benefits of 2018 investments in pit development, including higher grade.We continue to advance our near mine drilling programmes. The Tokkinsky deposit we have identified near our Neryungri hub is a good example and shows real promise. As the year progresses we will conduct further infill drilling to confirm the resource. Our successful Gross launch shows how we can take promising near mine deposits and develop them around a central hub, economics permitting. Nikolai ZelenskiChief Executive Officer of Nordgold
