“Last year we acquired the project and grew resources to almost 350K ounces in the heart of the WA goldfields. Now this year’s about growing those and having aggressive ongoing programs,” Mr Piggot told The Market Link.

“We’re very pleased that the very first batch of assays have come back with some significant results, and they include 13 metres at 3.2 grams [per tonne gold] down-dip… as well as a 10-metre wide zone at one gram as well. We think this is a really positive result considering this is just the first batch of Evanston assays.”
