Allied Gold Corporation (TSX: AAUC) announced a series of changes and developments meant to improve operational oversight, improve mining operations, advance the Kurmuk project towards operations and improve corporate governance. It said these include management and board appointments, awarding the mining contract for Kurmuk to a "reputable" international contractor, as well as consolidating mining activities in Mali and Cote d'Ivoire operations under the same "well experienced and well capitalized" contractor.

Separately, Allied Gold reported third quarter production of 85,147 was consistent with the first two quarters of 2024 and the comparative quarter of 2023. Year-to-date production of 258,459 was nearly 10,000 ounces higher than the comparative period of 2023. Third quarter net loss was $108.0 million or $(0.43) per share basic and diluted. Adjusted third quarter net earnings of $50.6 million or $0.20 per share basic and diluted, primarily reflecting adjustments for non-recurring items related to the Mali agreement (discussed below), tax adjustments, and unrealized losses on the revaluation of financial instruments.

Elsewhere, Denison Mines Corp. (DML.TO and NYSE American: DNN) overnight reported "positive progress" on its Phoenix Engineering and regulatory review.

David Cates, President and CEO, in a statement said: "Our third quarter report includes an update on the positive progress of our engineering and regulatory approval efforts for our planned Phoenix In-Situ Recovery uranium mining operation. We continue to rapidly advance detailed design engineering efforts and achieved completion of 45% of total engineering by the end of the third quarter. Long-lead procurement efforts continued to ramp up. Currently, $21 million in milestone payments or commitments have been made for items included in our estimates of initial project capex, with several additional procurement packages in progress.

"On the regulatory side, we are pleased to report that substantially all outstanding information requests from the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission's review of the Wheeler River draft Environmental Impact Statement have been resolved, and the Federal review process is nearing completion. Given this positive progress with the Federal review, we have opted to submit a final Provincial EIS to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment to advance the process of obtaining formal approval from the Province.

"Beyond Wheeler River, we are pleased with the progress of the SABRE program at the McClean North deposit, which remains on track for production in 2025. Our team is also active on our portfolio of other development and exploration projects, with study work advancing on both the Midwest project and the Tthe Heldeth Tue deposit, with the potential to result in updated or new technical studies in the coming months.

"Also notable is our recent transaction with Foremost Clean Energy, which involves Denison optioning up to 70% of its interests in a portfolio of 10 exploration properties. The transaction was designed to amplify our exposure to future discovery by encouraging exploration on -- and retaining significant ownership of -- properties that would otherwise have received little attention from Denison with our current focus on development and mining stage projects."

(KEI.TO, NASDAQ: KGEI) said the Alicia Renee 2-11-3H, 2-11-4H and 2-11-5H wells were all successfully completed and are currently flowing back fracture stimulation fluid.

Our objective with these longer lateral wells is to achieve further improvements in our efficiency and rates of return."
