Completion of the sale of Savannah’s remaining shareholding in Renison Coal Pty Ltd will allow Savannah to bring forward realisation of value for the Ashford Project for Savannah shareholders. It allows Savannah to remain focussed on and provides funding for progressing our gold mining and exploration projects in North Queensland and provides a ‘pure play’ gold investment profile for Savannah investors. Savannah shareholders will retain considerable exposure to the Ashford Coking Coal Projects’ future potential through the ~19.5% shareholding interest in Clara and the retained royalty interest on coal sold from the project.
