## Minestarters Atlas summary

TRX Gold reported a record second quarter in 2026, pouring 7,453 ounces of gold and selling 7,314 ounces, leading to record revenue of $34.1 million and adjusted EBITDA of $20.2 million. The company also achieved robust gold recovery rates of 89-92% from recent metallurgical test work, exceeding the 88% assumed in the PEA. Plans are underway to expand processing capacity to 3,500+ tonnes per day and update the Buckreef life-of-mine plan and PEA, anticipating improved economics and increased annual gold production.

Reasoning: TRX Gold reported a record quarter with significant increases in gold production, revenue, and adjusted EBITDA. New metallurgical test work confirmed robust recovery rates above prior PEA assumptions, and the company is advancing plans for a substantial plant expansion and an updated PEA to reflect improved economics.
