Managing Director's Summary

Rick Yeates

"Centred on a high grade mineralised core defined by previous drilling, Phase 1 RC drilling at the Plum Pudding deposit has extended mineralisation over a 240m strike length to the south. Subject to infill and verification RC and diamond drilling, Plum Pudding is likely to represent a further new, shallow, oxide gold deposit that will be assessed as part of the updated pre-feasibility study (PFS), particularly as it is situated only 850m south of the Company’s 100%-owned, 600,000tpa processing plant, within granted Mining Lease M57/129. The Directors look forward to sharing the final Phase 1 RC drilling results with you as they are received and compiled. The results of this program to date and the strong prevailing gold price significantly heighten the prospects of a positive mill recommissioning decision."
