has continued to test the depth extensions of the Tabakoroni
deposit at its Syama operation in Mali.
Resolute defined an underground resource of 8.1mt @
4.89 g/t gold for 1.26 moz. The company plans to mine the
underground resource after open pit operations end in 2024.
Before then, it intends to expand the underground tonnes.
Drilling in August returned hits of 8m @ 28 g/t from 383m,
13m @ 14.52 g/t from 397m, 18 @ 11.2 g/t from 317m, 9m
@ 17.42 g/t from 415m and 18m @ 36.77 g/t from 416m.
It has been a similar story for K92 Mining Inc and its Kora
deposit in Papua New Guinea.
K92’s Kainantu mine achieved record quarter of production
in Q2 of 25,015oz gold equivalent at AISC of $US1,057/oz.
However, it was at the drill bit where K92 saw most success.
In Q2 it produced more than 20 intersections of plus-10 g/t
