Description: CMCL Caledonia Mining December 31, 2025
Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc (CMCL) is a Jersey-incorporated gold producer that operates the Blanket Mine in Zimbabwe, where it holds a 64 % working interest, and pursues additional exploration through 100 % owned projects such as Maligreen, Bilboes and Motapa in the country’s Midlands and southern regions.
The Blanket Mine generated roughly 120 kt of gold in 2023, translating to an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of about $800 per ounce-well below the 2023 average global gold AISC of $1,100, which gives the company a cost-advantage in a rising price environment.
Key macro drivers for CMCL include the persistent inflation-hedge demand for gold, record central-bank purchases (over 400 t in 2023), and Zimbabwe’s recent fiscal reforms that have reduced foreign-exchange restrictions, potentially easing cash repatriation for mining firms.
For a deeper quantitative view, the ValueRay platform offers a granular breakdown of CMCL’s cost structure and peer comparisons.
