Anglo Asian produced 14,309 GEOs in the third quarter, compared with 16,316 GEOs in the year-earlier period, as lower gold production outweighed the increase in copper and silver output.

The Azerbaijan-focused company saw an improvement in its gold bullion sales compared with the year-earlier quarter. It sold 10,000 ounces of gold bullion at an average US$1,727 per ounce versus 6,828 ounces sold at an average US$1,815 an ounce in the third quarter of 2021.

Anglo Asian had cash of US$15.3mln as of 30 September 2022.

During the quarter, the company’s revised production-sharing agreement became law in Azerbaijan, granting the group three new contract areas, Pro Active Investors.
