Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Legal proceedings The Company has been named as a defendant in four pro se individual and/or putative class/derivative actions in the Delaware Chancery Court that assert claims for, inter alia, breach of contract, declaratory judgment, equitable fraud and fiduciary breaches (against two company officers) arising from or relating to Warrants and/or shares purportedly held by the plaintiffs. In various forms, they allege that the Company or its predecessor entities breached the Warrant Agreement, dated October 22, 2015, and/or related Amendment Agreement, dated February 26, 2020. Among other things, the plaintiffs allege, by or on behalf of Warrant holders, that the Company or its predecessor(s) breached these agreements by failing to make proper “Mechanical Adjustments” to the Warrants upon the occurrence of certain business transactions and events, including the Recapitalization Transaction. On July 9, 2024, the Delaware Court issued a letter opinion addressing the Company’s motion to disqualify the plaintiffs from bringing pro se class/derivative actions. Pursuant to that order, one of the four lawsuits (an individual action) has been discontinued. Also, the Delaware Court held that two of the plaintiffs are inadequate class representatives (and cannot pursue pro se derivative claims), but they can proceed with their individual claims if they so choose. The third plaintiff has retained counsel and is pursuing his class action. All parties are currently awaiting further direction from the Delaware Court before moving to the next phase of motions, which will seek to dismiss the remaining actions. The Company expenses legal fees and other costs associated with legal proceedings as incurred. The Company assessed, in conjunction with its legal counsel, the need to record a liability related to the Complaint and determined that a loss was not probable nor reasonably estimable. Litigation accruals are recorded when, and if, it is determined that a loss related matter is both probable and reasonably estimable. Material loss contingencies that are reasonably possible of occurrence, if any, are subject to disclosure. No losses have been recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, with respect to litigation or loss contingencies. Insurance The Company has deductible-based insurance policies for certain losses related to general liability, workers’ compensation, and automobile coverage. The Company records accruals for contingencies related to its insurance policies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are adjusted periodically as assessments change, or additional information becomes available. Insurance losses for claims filed and claims incurred but not reported are accrued based upon estimates of the aggregate liability for uninsured claims using historical loss development factors and actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry. Financial commitments and contingencies not recorded in the Financial Statements As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of a net smelter royalty arrangement and a net profit royalty arrangement. Crofoot Royalty A portion of the Hycroft Mine is subject to a payment of 4% net profit royalty to the previous owner of certain patented and unpatented mining claims, the (“Crofoot Royalty”). The mining lease also requires an annual advance payment of $0.1 million every year mining occurs on the leased claims. All advance annual payments are credited against the future payments due under the 4% net profit royalty. An additional payment of $0.1 million is required for each year the total tons mined on the leased claims exceeds 5.0 million tons. As the Company ceased mining operations in November 2021, the Company was not required to pay the annual advance payment of $0.1 million in 2025 or 2024. The total payments due under the mining lease are capped at $7.6 million, and as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has paid $3.3 million, including $0.6 million of advanced annual payments. See Note 3 – Prepaids and Deposits for additional information. Sprott Royalty Pursuant to the Royalty Agreement with Sprott Private Resource Lending II (CO) Inc. in which the Company received cash consideration in the amount of $30.0 million, the Company granted a perpetual royalty equal to 1.5% of the net smelter returns from the Hycroft Mine, payable monthly (“Sprott Royalty Agreement”). The royalty is accounted for as a deferred gain liability. Net smelter returns for any given month are calculated as Monthly Production multiplied by the Monthly Average Gold Price and the Monthly Average Silver Price, minus Allowable Deductions, as such terms are defined in the Sprott Royalty Agreement. The Company is required to remit royalty payments to the payee free and clear and without any present or future deduction, withholding, charge or levy on account of taxes, except Excluded Taxes as such term is defined in the Sprott Royalty Agreement. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the estimated net present value of the Sprott Royalty Agreement was $146.7 million. The net present value of the Sprott Royalty Agreement was modeled using the following level 3 inputs: (i) market consensus inputs for future gold and silver prices; (ii) a precious metals industry consensus discount rate of 5.0%; and (iii) estimates of the Hycroft Mine’s life-of-mine gold and silver production volumes and timing.
