VANCOUVER, BC, May 2, 2023 /CNW/ - Soma Gold Corp. (TSXV: SOMA) (WKN: A2P4DU) (OTC: SMAGF) (the "Company" or "Soma") announces financial and operating results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 (Q4 2022 and FY2022). Gold equivalent ounces produced during the year from its 100% owned El Bagre, Colombia, operation was 23,115 ounces and 22,952 ounces were sold - a 30% increase from the previous year.

Soma's CEO, Javier Cordova, states, "Soma Gold successfully completed the construction of the Cordero Mine, with commercial production being declared effective January 1, 2023. Soma also achieved its goal for gold ounces produced, setting another record for the El Bagre Gold Complex in Colombia. The second tranche of the Nuevo Granada Gold Loan was completed in January 2023, leaving only the 1% NSR tail as the remaining obligation. The Company is generating free cash flow from operations with aggressive development and exploration projects underway to ensure a long mine life. During 2022, our business generated $17.3 million of Adjusted EBITDA(1), a 53% increase from the prior year. Free cash flow from current operations substantially funded our long-term growth investments. It includes the construction of the Cordero Mine and a new tailings disposal facility ($9.7 million), the down payment for the underground mining fleet ($1.1 million), exploration programs ($1.1 million) and the commencement of final permitting and engineering and design work for the Nechi Mine."
2023 Guidance
Mr. Cordova further states, "Looking forward, we expect to produce between 35,000 and 37,000 ounces of gold during 2023. We are also continuing to develop our partnerships with artisanal and small-scale miners to align with the Colombian government's focus on enabling small miners to operate in compliance with the Country's environmental policy.
