About Amara Mining plc

Amara is a gold explorer/developer with assets in West Africa. The Group is focused on unlocking the value in its development projects. At Yaoure in Côte d'Ivoire, this will be done by increasing the confidence in the existing Mineral Resource and economics at the project as Amara progresses it through to Bankable Feasibility Study. At Baomahun, this will be achieved by gaining an improved understanding of the exploration upside potential and underground opportunity. With its experience of bringing new mines into production, Amara aims to further increase its production profile with highly prospective opportunities across both assets.
