On February 25, 2025, Mountain Province Diamonds Inc. announced a series of refinancing agreements to strengthen its financial position and support operations at the Gahcho Kué (GK) Mine in the Northwest Territories, where it holds a 49% interest alongside De Beers. These agreements include updated cost-sharing arrangements for mine decommissioning, a new US$40-million term loan and an extension of its US$177-million senior secured notes to 2027. The refinancing aims to address anticipated challenges in 2025, particularly higher costs during the winter season, while the company also seeks a C$33-million revolving credit facility to manage cash flow through the year.
