Our Project Philosophy

Every Synterra project begins with a simple idea: turn forgotten resources into future value. We identify and target brownfield gold mines and historic tailings dumps that hold significant untapped potential. Our team conducts comprehensive geological surveys, detailed resource modeling, and metallurgical test work to accurately define recoverable reserves and optimize extraction strategies.

Rather than pursuing high-impact greenfield exploration, we focus on reclaiming and reprocessing existing assets. This strategic approach allows us to minimize environmental disturbance, reduce permitting timelines, and leverage existing infrastructure—significantly lowering capital costs and accelerating project development.

Our tailored processing solutions are designed to maximize recovery rates while ensuring operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. By combining modern technology with proven engineering methods, we unlock value from resources once considered uneconomical or obsolete.

Strong Fundamentals Behind Every Project

High Gold Prices
 With gold trading above $3,500/oz, projects that were once uneconomical are now highly profitable. This creates a favorable environment for rapid payback periods and strong margins, even at early development stages.

Proven Geology Our projects are located in brownfield regions with a long history of gold production. This means the geology is well-documented, drilling and survey data are abundant, and the probability of proven resources is significantly higher than in unexplored areas.

Lower Risk & Cost Profile By focusing on tailings reprocessing, we avoid the high costs, long timelines, and geological uncertainty of greenfield exploration. This strategy reduces risk exposure, accelerates development, and improves return on investment.

Shared Value Creation Beyond investor returns, our projects are designed to deliver sustainable benefits to local communities, including job creation, infrastructure improvements, and environmental rehabilitation of legacy mining sites. This alignment with ESG standards makes our portfolio more attractive to modern institutional investors.

Scalable Model Each project follows a replicable development path—from identification to delivery—allowing for predictable growth and portfolio expansion across multiple regions.
