Vancouver, December 21, 2023 - Inca One Gold Corp. (TSXV: INCA) (OTCQB: INCAF) (FSE: SU92) ("Inca One" or the "Company") a gold producer operating two mineral processing facilities in Peru, (the "Plants") reports consolidated sales (unaudited) for November 2023 and comparative month over month ("MoM") operational results.
Sales revenue in November reached US$4.6 million from the sale of 2,251 ounces of gold Dore, a 70% increase over the prior month of October. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the number of exports, an increase in ounces sold and a slightly higher gold price (US$1,978 per ounce).
Additionally, the Company has realized year over year increases in operations, with deliveries up 66%, milling up 27% and gold production up 49% as compared to last November 2022.
| Consolidated Operations | November 2023 | October 2023 | MoM change |
| Sales (US) | $4.6 M | $2.7 M | 70% |
| Deliveries (tonnes) | 7,000 | 5,766 | 21% |
| Milling (tonnes) | 4,919 | 4,647 | 6% |
| Gold Production (ounces) | 1,888 | 1,919 | -2% |
Deliveries in November reached their highest level (7,000 tonnes) since May 2022, representing a 21% increase over the prior month and deliveries in the first two weeks of December continue to be robust. As previously reported, Inca One is seeing evidence of increased seasonal mining activity among its artisanal and small-scale mining partners, which is expected to translate into increased milling activity in the coming weeks.
Total tonnes milled in November climbed 6% as the company operated at 164 tonnes per day ("TPD") while gold production was slightly lower on a MoM basis.
