Dual listing on ASX and TSX expands market reach and strengthens operational scale
asx 200 listed Alkane Resources Ltd (ASX:ALK) has commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange following its merger with Mandalay Resources Corporation (TSX:MND, OTCQB:MNDJF). The transaction was finalised under a statutory plan of arrangement, resulting in Alkane acquiring all issued shares of Mandalay. Following the merger, Mandalay’s shares were removed from the TSX and an application was lodged to end its reporting issuer obligations in Canada.
Diversified operational portfolio
The merged company now operates multiple producing assets across different jurisdictions. These include the Tomingley gold mine in New South Wales, the Costerfield gold and antimony mine in Victoria, and the Björkdal gold operation in Sweden. Exploration continues around each of these sites to enhance resource development.
Development projects and exploration focus

Exploration across the Northern Molong Porphyry Project area is ongoing, with an emphasis on expanding the resource base in key mineral commodities.
Production outlook and financial position
The company has outlined a gold-equivalent production forecast for the current financial period with an expectation of growth in the following year. Alkane reports a solid cash position, supporting its ability to advance operational and development activities across its asset base.
Enhanced market presence through dual listing
With listings on both the ASX and TSX, Alkane increases its exposure to a wider shareholder base, particularly in North America.
