Metals Exploration plc announced that development and construction activities at the La India project in Nicaragua are progressing to schedule. Further to the Company's announcement of 4 August 2025, the Rock Creek gold processing plant arrived ahead of schedule at the port in Nicaragua. Unloading is now complete, and delivery of equipment to the La India site is well advanced.
The commencement of plant erection activities remains on schedule for October 2025. Mine development earthworks associated with the processing facility and the mine industrial area are now approximately 95% complete, with the run-of-mine ("ROM") pad currently being finalised. The construction of site buildings and infrastructure is well underway following the orderly and agreed decamping of all artisanal miners from the project site and pit area.
Excitingly, the Rock Creek plant has now been unloaded at the port in Nicaragua, and all components already delivered to site, in preparation for assembly, on schedule, in October 2025.
