About SSR Mining
SSR Mining digs gold and silver out of the ground in Nevada, Colorado, Saskatchewan, and Argentina. In June 2026 it finished selling its idle Turkish mine for 1.5 billion dollars, letting go of a site that cost money while producing nothing. What is left is a focused Americas miner worth about 5.3 billion dollars and one of the biggest gold producers in the United States.
The case for and against
Both sides of the story, in plain English.
- Cash Cushion
Once you add the Turkey sale money to the cash it already had, SSR has about 2.1 billion dollars in the bank. That is nearly twice everything the company owes, and about 40 percent of its whole value. It gives SSR room to reward shareholders, grow its mines, or ride out a drop in gold prices.
- Profits Triple
Counting only the mines it kept, SSR earned about 530 million dollars in profit in 2025, more than triple the 159 million dollars from the year before. Sales jumped about 75 percent to 1.63 billion dollars as gold prices soared and the Cripple Creek mine in Colorado joined the lineup. About 32 cents of every sales dollar turned into profit.
- Climbing Costs
The cost of running SSR's mines jumped about 37 percent in 2025, from 478 million to 653 million dollars. Company overhead rose about 71 percent to 108 million dollars. Some of that comes from adding a new mine, but high gold prices are hiding a lot of it, and if gold slides those bills stay while sales shrink.
- Cleanup Tab
SSR owes about 405 million dollars to restore the land once its mines are dug out. It also owes another 107 million dollars in future payments tied to mines it bought in the past. That is real money that will leave the company over time, and currency swings cost SSR about 30 million dollars more in 2025.
