Read MoreHide Full Article

Key Takeaways

  • ARMN lifted Q3 gold production 36.6% year over year to 73,236 ounces, led by strong Segovia output.
  • Aris Mining's Segovia mine benefited from a second mill, boosting ore processed 31.6% year over year.
  • ARMN became the sole owner of the Soto Norte project, reinforcing its long-term growth pipeline in Colombia.

Aris Mining Corporation (ARMN - Free Report) reported a solid 36.6% year-over-year increase in gold production to 73,236 ounces for the third quarter of 2025. Production also rose 25% from the prior quarter. This growth, powered by the Segovia Operations in Colombia, positions ARMN favorably to achieve its full-year production target of 230,000-275,000 ounces.

Segovia, a cornerstone of Aris Mining's portfolio, saw a 38% year-over-year rise in production to 65,549 ounces in the third quarter. Also, the Colombia-based Marmato Upper Mine produced 7,687 ounces, marking a 26% increase from a year ago.

The solid growth in gold production is primarily driven by the Segovia mine, following the commissioning of its second mill. The added capacity significantly increased Segovia’s processing strength, making it the main contributor to ARMN’s performance. During the third quarter, the mine processed 219,550 tonnes of gold ore, reflecting an increase of 31.6% on a year-over-year basis.

It's worth noting that in December 2025, ARMN completed the acquisition of the remaining 49% stake in the Soto Norte joint venture from MDC Industry Holding Company LLC in Colombia. With the acquisition, Aris Mining became the sole owner of the Soto Norte project, where a new pre-feasibility study (completed in September 2025) reconfirmed the project as one of the most attractive undeveloped gold assets in the Americas.

As ARMN progresses with its expansion initiatives, it is well-placed to achieve its ambitious production targets and strengthen its standing in the Latin American gold mining industry.
