Key points

- FY26 production guidance revised upwards to above 1.5Moz
- New KCGM mill on track for early FY27 commissioning
- Actively managing diesel fuel supply, a key risk for the industry
Full summary
Northern Star Resources Ltd (ASX: NST) has announced preliminary sales results for the three-month period ended 31 March 2026. Preliminary gold sold for the March quarter totalled 381koz. The Company is forecast to deliver its revised FY26 production guidance of above 1.5Moz, up from the previous 9-month total of 1,110koz. This result remains particularly dependent on mill throughput at KCGM, with both downside and upside potential. The new KCGM mill remains on track for commissioning in early FY27. While the Company is not currently experiencing any supply issues with diesel fuel, this remains a focus for the business and a key risk for the broader mining industry in Australia. Northern Star will continue to actively manage and monitor the situation and will provide an update should there be a material change. The company will release its March quarterly results on Wednesday, 22 April 2026 and host a results call on the same day.
Guidance
FY26 production guidance revised upwards to above 1.5Moz of gold sold.
