Background and current status
The delay in the expected production start for the Arkeros mining development project is attributed to heavy rains, including intermittent rainfall in August, washouts on general roads, and damage to bridges causing obstacles to transport of equipment and personnel, as well as administrative procedures for power reception required for plant operation taking longer than anticipated. While negotiations with local authorities are ongoing, this has caused a delay from the previously disclosed schedule (February 27, 2026 disclosure) of July–September 2026. It is stated that the mining site itself is scarcely affected.
Outlook and impact going forward
The production start timing is currently under review, and will be disclosed promptly once determined. General roads have been temporarily restored, improving transport capacity, and permit procedures are progressing through discussions. The impact on performance is currently under review, and if deemed material, a separate disclosure will be made.
