Is Torex Gold Resources (TXG) stock Halal?

Torex Gold Resources is a gold exploration and mining company focused on extracting and producing gold and other valuable minerals. The company’s primary operations are centered at the El Limón Guajes Mining Complex, an open-pit mining operation located in Mexico’s Guerrero Gold Belt. Torex Gold Resources plays a significant role in the extraction of gold, contributing to the commodity markets by supplying gold, which is essential for various industrial applications and financial products. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Torex Gold Resources stock Halal?

Is Torex Gold Resources Shariah compliant?

Yes. In the October 2026 screening Torex Gold Resources (TXG) passes AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21: the business activity screen and every financial ratio screen hold. For a resources company like Torex Gold Resources, AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 has little quarrel with the product; the scrutiny falls on the financing. Heavy machinery and long project cycles are usually funded with debt, and the standard tolerates interest bearing borrowing only below 30% of market capitalisation.

Does Torex Gold Resources pass the business activity test?

Yes. In the October 2026 screening Torex Gold Resources holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The activity itself, extracting and selling resources, raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.

Is Torex Gold Resources' income Halal?

Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Torex Gold Resources' income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the October 2026 screening, and the small impure portion is handled through purification: the factor of 99.83% tells holders of TXG what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity. On a dividend yield of around 0.90%, the purification amount is modest but real.

Does Torex Gold Resources meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?

Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation, measured against a market capitalisation of CA$6.38B (market data as of 1 October 2026). Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has TXG re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.

Why do other halal screeners show a different verdict for Torex Gold Resources?

Screeners can disagree without either being wrong. AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21, which Tabadulat applies, measures interest bearing debt and investments against market capitalisation with a 30% ceiling. MSCI and FTSE measure them against total assets with a 33% ceiling, and S&P and Dow Jones Islamic use a multi year average of market capitalisation. Data dates differ too, because each provider reads filings and prices on its own schedule. The same company can therefore pass one standard and fail another in the same month. Tabadulat publishes one answer, the AAOIFI result as of October 2026, and re-screens it every month.

Tabadulat is an ADGM regulated brokerage whose license covers Shari'a Compliant Regulated Activities, as the FSRA permission names them. New to the terminology? Gharar and Maysir, Sukuk, Zakat and purification are all explained in plain English.
