Orla CEO Delivers on Every Target as Gold Production, Cash Flow and Growth Accelerate

Orla Mining is breaking out. In this exclusive Kitco News interview, President and CEO Jason Simpson lays out how the gold producer’s 170% share price surge and 134% production jump are no accident—they’re part of a carefully executed plan. With the recent acquisition of Musselwhite from Newmont, Orla is now positioned to become a 500,000-ounce-per-year gold powerhouse by 2028.

Simpson joins Kitco’s Jeremy Szafron at Mining Forum Americas to detail how Musselwhite could add 300,000 ounces of annual production, why Camino Rojo’s 4-million-ounce resource is just getting started, and how South Railroad in Nevada could become a flagship U.S. asset.

With $50 million in exploration investment and a strong capital discipline focused on debt reduction and shareholder returns, Orla’s trajectory stands out in a sector often plagued by overreach. Simpson says the pit wall event at Camino Rojo has been resolved, and underground expansion could begin as early as next year. He also discusses Orla’s optionality in Panama and outlines a disciplined approach to M&A, exploration, and cash flow.
