Minera Alamos Reports 9,165 Q4 Ounces, 35,303 Full-Year, Copperstone La Paz County

Minera Alamos released preliminary fourth-quarter 2025 operating results on January 15, reporting 9,165 ounces of gold produced in Q4 from its Pan operating complex and 35,303 ounces for the full year. The quarterly total exceeded the company’s guidance range, and the company reported a cash balance of about US$34 million as of December 31, 2025. The filing also identified the Copperstone mine and associated infrastructure in La Paz County, Arizona, as an advanced development asset with a permitted mine plan of operations that could be developed in parallel with other projects.

Those headline figures matter locally because Copperstone represents a tangible piece of mining infrastructure in La Paz County that could shape employment, contractor work, and local services if the company advances development activity. The preliminary results included disclosed cash-cost and all-in sustaining cost (AISC) metrics, but Minera Alamos cautioned that fully reconciled numbers and the detailed production accounting will appear in its upcoming quarterly filings. That means investors and residents should treat the published figures as preliminary until the audited disclosures arrive.

For county officials and neighboring businesses, the notice that Copperstone is a permitted, advanced asset signals a faster pathway to potential permitting milestones and construction decisions compared with greenfield sites. A decision to develop Copperstone in parallel with other operations could increase demand for local subcontractors, truck traffic, and water and energy services, and it would require coordination with county permitting and environmental oversight. Minera Alamos’ emphasis on infrastructure ownership at Copperstone suggests the company believes the site can be mobilized without the lead times normally associated with new permit applications.

Environmental commitments, community engagement plans and detailed permitting notes were not fully reconciled in the preliminary release. Those items will be central for residents and local government when the company files its complete quarterly statements and when it presents permitting plans to regulators. Residents should expect requests for public meetings, environmental monitoring plans and specific timelines if Minera Alamos moves toward parallel development at Copperstone.

Economically, the production and cash position reported provide the company with near-term liquidity to support operations or development choices. For La Paz County, the next milestones to watch are the company’s quarterly filings for reconciled financials, any updated permitting submissions for Copperstone, and scheduling of community or regulatory meetings. How Minera Alamos balances production growth, environmental stewardship and local hiring will determine whether Copperstone becomes a steady contributor to the county’s economy or remains an asset on standby.
