Aura Minerals produces gold and copper, running mining projects across the Americas that also target silver deposits during exploration. The company is perhaps best recognized for the spread of mines and development projects it oversees rather than a single flagship operation.
Its work is organized into distinct segments, covering the Minosa, Apoena, and Aranzazu mines as well as the Almas and Borborema projects, with a corporate division tying the operations together. This structure reflects a business built around managing several mining ventures at different stages, from active production to project development, rather than a single centralized site.
The company traces its history back to 1946, when it operated as Aura Gold Inc., before adopting the Aura Minerals name in July 2007. Its main office is located in Coconut Grove, Florida, and its shares are listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker AUGO.
Aura Minerals’s GekkoIndex — Gekko’s 0 to 100 smart money score — reads 60.9, in the Accumulation zone, up 11.3 points over five sessions.
