Rox chief executive John Dorward said the continuing high-grade
results at Ancien further underpinned the robust PEA released
recently and were expected to add meaningful ounces for
inclusion into the feasibility study early in 2021.
“With four rigs currently turning, I am confident that we will
continue to unearth further upside from the existing four deposits
as well as near-term targets on the property which are yet to be
tested,” Dorward said.
