Almonty Starts Commercial Tungsten Processing at Sangdong Mine
ALM•ALM•ALM•ALM•Almonty has begun processing ore at the Sangdong mine in South Korea, marking the start of commercial tungsten concentrate production. The company completed plant commissioning in early July 2026 and plans to ramp throughput to design capacity over the coming months.
Almonty has commenced ore processing at the Sangdong mine, activating its newly commissioned plant to produce tungsten concentrate. This marks the transition from construction to operational status at one of the world’s largest tungsten deposits.
The plant is scheduled to ramp throughput toward a design capacity of approximately 120,000 tonnes per annum over the next quarters. Staged increases in feed rate will allow Almonty to optimize metallurgical performance and concentrate grades.
Initial concentrate shipments are expected in Q3 2026, contributing to early revenue streams and strengthening cash flow. Successful operations at Sangdong will reduce reliance on toll milling and support debt servicing and future dividend potential.
