About Company
Perseus started life as a junior exploration company in 2004, exploring tenements in both Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire. In 2006, Perseus acquired the Ayanfuri exploration licences in Ghana that had previously hosted heap leach mining operations. Significant exploration success followed, and the company rapidly evolved from explorer to developer and then gold producer in 2012 with the successful development of the Edikan Gold Mine.
In pursuing our strategy of becoming a multi-mine, multi-jurisdictional gold producer, developer and explorer, we developed our second gold mine, the Sissingué Gold Mine in Côte d’Ivoire, based on an exploration discovery made early in the company’s history. Since achieving commercial production at the end of March 2018, Sissingué has surpassed all expectations, routinely exceeding internal targets for run time, recovery, gold production and costs.
