Thor Explorations Ltd (OTC:THXPF) has successfully resolved a tax dispute with the authorities in Osun State, Nigeria, by settling outstanding taxes owed by its subsidiary, Segilola Resources Operating Limited (SROL). The company confirmed that the payment, totaling 98.3 million naira, was made despite the absence of the customary 30-day review period, which is typically granted in such circumstances.

Throughout the dispute, Thor Explorations maintained that operations at its Segilola gold mine, Nigeria's first commercial-scale gold mining project, remained unaffected. The mine has continued its normal functioning since it began production in 2021, contributing significantly to Nigeria’s burgeoning mining sector.

In light of the dispute, Thor Explorations also addressed claims from local media outlets regarding the tax figures, stating that these reports were "false and unsubstantiated." The company emphasized its commitment to transparency and accuracy in financial reporting.

Furthermore, Thor Explorations is actively collaborating with Nigeria's Federal Ministry of Mines to implement strategies aimed at preventing similar tax-related incidents in the future. This proactive approach reflects the company's dedication to fostering a stable operational environment in Nigeria.

The Segilola mine has been instrumental in establishing a commercial framework for gold mining in the country, highlighting the potential for further development within Nigeria's mining sector. By addressing the tax dispute effectively and ensuring continuous operations, Thor Explorations positions itself as a key player in the industry while contributing to Nigeria's economic growth.
