About Vista Gold

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

Vista Gold is based in Englewood, Colorado. Its shares trade on NYSE under the ticker VGZ. The SEC classifies its business as gold and silver ores. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $0 and a net loss of $7.5m. At that date it held total assets of $16.3m and shareholders' equity of $15.1m.

In its own words

Vista Gold Corp. and its subsidiaries operate as a development-stage company in the gold mining industry. Vista does not currently generate cash flows from mining operations.

Our flagship asset is the Mt Todd Gold Project (“Mt Todd” or the “Project”), a development-stage gold deposit located in the Tier-1 jurisdiction of Northern Territory, Australia (the “NT”). Mt Todd offers a large gold mineral reserve, development optionality, expansion opportunities, exploration upside, advanced local infrastructure, community support, and demonstrated economic feasibility.

On July 29, 2025, the Company announced the results of a new Mt Todd feasibility study focused on developing a 15,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”), or 5.3 million tonnes per annum (“tpa”), operation (the “Mt Todd FS” or the “Study”). The Mt Todd FS significantly decreased the initial capital requirement, prioritized grade over tonnes, delivered stable gold production over the extended life of the project, and provided a fresh perspective for developing the Project using design and operating practices commonly employed by Australian gold operations.
