Great Divide Mining Ltd (ASX: GDM) today outlined its operational “To-Do List” for 2026, reinforcing the Company’s disciplined strategy of transforming high-quality brownfield assets into producing gold operations.
Having taken GDM from ASX listing to gold producer in under two years, the Company enters 2026 with a clear focus:- Do more of what works.
Across its portfolio, GDM will continue to apply its proven operating model — recommissioning historic mining projects, upgrading existing infrastructure, and progressively increasing production and cash flow.
Key project priorities for 2026 include:
Challenger Mine (Adelong, NSW): Complete plant upgrades to continuous gravity operation, commence processing remnant ores and mullock, progress open-cut and underground studies, and steadily increase production toward a 20,000 oz per annum target.
Coonambula (Antimony–Gold JV, QLD): Complete a 4,000-metre drilling program, expand the antimony-gold resource system, advance mine planning and metallurgy, and progress mining lease applications.
Devil’s Mountain, (Gympie–Kilkivan, QLD): Follow up LiDAR targets, prioritise drill-ready prospects across the broader corridor, and test high-conviction targets.
Yellow Jack (Greenvale, QLD): Advance the Yellow Jack–Blackjack mill production JV, finalise mining and access studies, complete permitting, and prepare for first ore movements and near-term cash flow.
Cape Project (North QLD): Progress mapping, geochemical sampling and field programs across gold, REE and pegmatite targets, moving Cape toward drill-ready status.
GDM CEO Justin Haines said the Company’s 2026 plan reflects confidence built through delivery.
“We may not get it all done in 2026, but we surely will do our very best,” he said, “It only becomes a valid goal when it’s written down. We have well defined direction, and we’re being transparent with shareholders right up front.”
“We know what we’re good at, and we know our strengths,” Mr. Haines said.
“We’ve taken Great Divide from listing to gold production in under two years by staying focused, disciplined, pragmatic and practical. That approach hasn’t changed.
“These are brownfield projects with known geology, existing infrastructure and a clear pathway to production. We’re sticking with a proven plan.”
“If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it,” Haines smiles.
