The July 2025 Mt Todd Feasibility Study defines a smaller initial high-grade operation to reduce capital expenditure and leverages contract services to lower development and operational risks. It confirms near-term production potential through focused processing and supports selective metallurgical testing and a geotechnical review to optimize pit design.

In 2026, Vista Gold is modifying key permits and expanding its Australian organization, starting with an executive team in Perth and planned operational presence in the Northern Territory. It aims to begin detailed engineering and design in 2027, initiating a 27-month construction and commissioning phase targeting first gold production.
