Vox Royalty Anticipates Major Revenue Growth Following Bonikro Gold Mine Extension to 2036
Toronto, Thursday, 11 June 2026.
Allied Gold extends the Bonikro mine’s life to 2036, projecting a 400% production increase to over 3,732 kg annually, securing significant long-term revenue for Vox Royalty.
A Strategic Extension Secures Long-Term Deliveries
On June 10, 2026, Allied Gold Corporation announced a comprehensive update to the integrated production plan for its Bonikro gold mine in Côte d’Ivoire [1][2]. The finalized plan, completed ahead of its mid-2026 schedule, officially extends the mine’s operational life to 2036 [2]. Under this revised framework, the facility is projected to support an average annual production exceeding 120,000 ounces of gold, which equates to approximately 3,732 kilograms [1][2]. For Vox Royalty Corp. (NASDAQ: VOXR), a returns-focused mining royalty and streaming company, this development fundamentally alters the value proposition of its investment [1]. In September 2025, Vox acquired an uncapped 50 percent gold offtake-stream on Bonikro’s production from Deterra Royalties Limited [1]. At the time of that acquisition, the mine’s life plan only extended to 2029 [1].
Operational Enhancements and Capacity Expansion
The extension to 2036 is underpinned by tangible operational momentum and recent geological milestones. In 2025, the Bonikro mine successfully produced 100,678 ounces (3,131 kilograms) of gold, marking a 16 percent year-over-year increase [1]. Building on this trajectory, Allied Gold has set the 2026 production guidance for the site at 105,000 to 110,000 ounces, or roughly 3,266 to 3,421 kilograms [1]. The production pipeline was further bolstered on February 18, 2026, when Allied Gold declared a maiden Mineral Reserve at the Oumé zone and integrated Phase 6 into the Bonikro operations [1].
Broader Portfolio Catalysts and Corporate Maneuvers
The positive developments at Bonikro are occurring against a backdrop of broader corporate activity affecting Vox Royalty’s underlying operators. Since Vox completed its Global Gold Portfolio acquisition in 2025, six of the underlying mines or operators connected to that portfolio have been the subject of acquisition or merger proposals [1]. This includes Allied Gold itself, which is currently finalizing a commercial arrangement with Zijin Gold International Company Limited [1][2]. Following commitments announced in late May 2026, both entities are working to satisfy all conditions for the transaction by an extended outside date of July 29, 2026 [1][2].
