MONTREAL, Nov. 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dynacor Group Inc. (TSX-DNG) (Dynacor or the "Corporation"), an international gold ore industrial corporation servicing ASMs (artisanal and small-scale miners), today announced gold sales of US$14.7 million (unaudited) (C$20.1 million) (1) for October 2022, compared to US$16.8 million (C$20.9 million) in October 2021, a decrease of US$2.1 million or 12.5% over last year.
The average selling price of gold in October 2022 was US$1,643 per oz, compared to US$1,772 per oz last year.
The $2.1 million decrease is explained by the lower average gold price (-$1.2 million) and the lower quantities of gold ounces sold (-$0.9 million) due to the decrease in ore grades compared to October 2021.
The 2022 cumulative sales at the end of October amounted to US$164.7 million, compared to US$162.4 million for the same period of 2021, a 1.4% increase. The year-to-date average selling price of gold at the end of October 2022 was US$1,803 per oz compared to US$1,790 per oz in 2021.
