Sales revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 amounted to $Nil compared to revenue of $Nil for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. Shipments of concentrate commenced during the third quarter of 2019. Concentrate sales provisional revenues totalled US$329,000 for the third quarter of 2021 compared to US$690,000 for the third quarter of 2020. Until the mine commences commercial production, the net proceeds from concentrate sales are being offset against development assets.

The net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 amounted to $1,173,276 (2020: $776,956) and the cash inflow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 amounted to $(1,116,243 (2020: $(359,304)). The difference in the net loss is mainly due to stock based compensation and additional investor relations costs and marketing activities.

The Company had a cash balance of $3,881,674 at September 30, 2021 compared to $638,433 at September 30, 2020. The working capital surplus at September 30, 2021 amounted to $2,454,581 compared to a working capital deficit of $7,700,406 at June 30, 2020. 

Exploration

The Company, during the month of July, began an initial 4,000-metre Phase 1 drill program targeting the Joshua Vein from surface, and targeting the Kearney Vein with underground drilling.

On November 24, 2021, Galantas announced results for the second underground hole in this drilling program. The highlights of this drilling program are detailed in the release and include a significant intercept of 26.7 g/t gold over 2.9 metres on the Kearney vein system. On October 12, 2021, Galantas announced initial drill results which included an intercept of 17.7 g/t gold over 2.5 metres.

Mine Development

Safety is a high priority and the Company continued to invest in safety-related training and infrastructure. The zero lost-time accident rate since the start of underground operations continues. Environmental monitoring demonstrates a high level of regulatory compliance. With the new management and operations team in place, detailed review of mine plans and production profile are ongoing.

Mario Stifano, CEO of Galantas, commented: "The Company has made great strides in advancing the Omagh Project with the commencement of drilling to increase the confidence of resources for mine planning while also looking to expand known resources. Operationally, the Company has secured critical new mining equipment to support mining activities while strengthening the site management and operations team as we commence a phased restart of operations early in the new year."
