1. Termination of Gold Offtake Agreement
In December 2024, Galiano Gold terminated its gold purchase and sale agreement with Red Kite Opportunities Master Fund for $13 million. This agreement had previously required the Asanko Gold Mine to sell 100% of its gold production, up to 2.2 million ounces, at prices selected by Red Kite during a nine-day quotational period post-shipment. The termination allows Galiano to now sell gold at prevailing market prices, potentially enhancing revenue in a bullish gold market. Stock Titan+1Seeking Alpha+1
