The asset retirement obligation represents the Company’s estimate of the present value of future reclamation costs, discounted using a credit‑adjusted risk‑free interest rate of 11.0% and an inflation rate of 2.5% for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company expensed the change in estimate for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 as a result of these being adjustments to the estimate for asset retirement obligations that were acquired as part of asset acquisitions.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the undiscounted cash flows related to asset retirement obligations totaled $26,443 and $23,529, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company deposited $8,388 and $7,751, respectively, for collateralization of its performance obligations with an unrelated third party also known as performance bonds. These funds are not available for the payment of general corporate obligations. The performance bonds are required for future restoration and reclamation obligations related to the Company’s operations. These funds are categorized as restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
