Aura Minerals Secures $200 Million Loan for Growth
Aura Minerals
— Sep 18, 2026
Aura Minerals secured a US$200 million syndicated loan at the holding-company level to fund supplier payments and prepayments for production as it advances Era Dorada in Guatemala and expands output at its Almas and Borborema operations, targeting more than 600,000 gold-equivalent ounces per year in coming years. The five-year facility carries SOFR plus 2.70% with a two-year grace period, and management says the financing diversifies funding sources and reinforces a balanced, disciplined growth strategy.

Finance
— Jul 22, 2026
{"summary":"Japan’s June import bill surged to a record 11.3 trillion yen as import costs climbed 59.3% in value despite lower oil volumes, driven by a weak yen and higher global oil prices, with diversification erratically shifting suppliers away from the Middle East to the US, Russia, and others. Markets are weighing BoJ policy, balancing signs of tightening against the risk of dovish surprises, as a weaker currency and elevated energy costs sustain inflation pressures while supporting import-driven growth dynamics.","title":"Summary"}
