Inca One Reports Strong Supply And Record Deliveries For June

VANCOUVER, BC – July 27, 2023 – INCA ONE GOLD CORP. (TSXV:INCA) (OTCQB:INCAF) (Frankfurt:SU92) (“Inca One” or the “Company”) a gold producer operating two mineral processing facilities in Peru, (the “Plants”) reports consolidated sales (unaudited) and comparative operational results for the three month period of April, May and June 2023 (“Q2 2023” or the “Quarter”).

Deliveries reached 15,069 tonnes over the Quarter, a 75% increase over Q1 2023. June deliveries specifically reached their highest total on record, increasing both 13% month over month and 5% year over year, as 5,665 tonnes of mineral bearing feedstock was delivered to Inca One Plants indicating a continued strong supply of mill feed being delivered to Inca One Plants.

“It’s gratifying to see a strong rebound in supply numbers over this second quarter,” indicated Edward Kelly, President and CEO of Inca One. “This was a very productive second quarter, and I am also extremely pleased to see the Company record its highest deliveries for any month of June in our prior 10 years of operating in Peru. We expect this trend of strong mineral supply to continue. Looking forward, once the Company is fully financed, we are confident we have the team and strategy in place to achieve full production of 450 tonnes per day (“TPD”) which will lead to increased profitability.”

Consolidated Operations Q2 2023 Q1 2023 QoQ change
Deliveries 15,069 8,612 75%
Milling 14,218 8,806 61%
Gold produced 5,469 3,823 43%
Sales(US$) $6.7M $8.7M -23%

Milling activity also increased 61% over the prior quarter as Inca One processed 14,218 tonnes of material in the Quarter averaging 156 TPD, utilizing only 34% of the Company’s built out and fully permitted operating capacity. The Company also processed 5,430 tonnes this past June, an increase of 5% over the prior month of May.

Gold production increased 43% over the prior quarter, reaching 5,469 ounces.

Sales revenue in the Quarter was $6.7 million, a decrease from $8.7 million the prior quarter. The decrease was due to the timing of exports near the end of June, of which there were 1,565 ounces of gold that were exported but the sale was not finalized until after the end of the Quarter. The estimated revenue from these ounces was approximately $3.1 million.
