Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 26, 2023) - INCA ONE GOLD CORP. (TSXV: INCA) (OTCQB: INCAF) (FSE: SU92) ("Inca One" or the "Company") a gold producer operating two mineral processing facilities in Peru, (the "Plants") reports consolidated sales (unaudited) for its calendar Q4 2022 period, ending December 31, 2022 and comparative year-over-year ("YoY") operational results.

The Company's calendar Q4 2022 sales achieved an all time high for any prior fourth quarter reaching US$12.4 million, a 16% YoY increase. Sales also surpassed the Company's previous Q3 2022 by 29% (US$9.6 million). The increase in quarterly sales was driven by the Company's higher level of ounces sold in the quarter compared to the prior quarter and to Q4 2021.

Sales in December were US$3.5 million, a 13% decrease over December 2021 sales of US$4.0 million. Accounting for the decline this month was a lower volume of gold sold and exported and a slightly lower price of gold received.
