Comment
Regis Managing Director, Mr Jim Beyer commented:
“The acquisition of this resource and tenement package enables Regis to pursue the addition of the Ben Hur deposit to the Duketon Operation production portfolio. We are excited about our plans to drill both the extensions to the resource and upgrading the inferred material, enabling open pit mine design work to commence. This and the exploration targets identified during our due diligence are exciting opportunities for growing our resources and ultimately our reserves at the Duketon Operations.”
