2015
YEAR IN REVIEW
In 2015 with a renewed focus and clear
strategy we reinvested in our operations to
position the company for long-term success
and shareholder value creation.
During the year we grew
production and invested
in Island Gold to unlock
the inherent potential of
this asset.
We grew our reserve
inventory and extended mine
life at both operations, putting
Richmont in the strongest
position in its 35-year history.
