Bass Metals – New Steps to Growth
Increased and expanded production- for the first time a realistic 5 year outlook
-
.
-
Large scale base metal production imminent –Phase 1 Fossey mine
-
Fossey East, Switchback and other targets – potential mill feed.
-
Hellyer Stockwork/HMS Plant – potential mill feed.
-
Tailings retreatment – boost to production and revenue-near term.
-
Large scale gold opportunity; possible company maker or just a “serious” cash supplement.
Highly leveraged to existing modern infrastructure
- Track record of exploration success with recent new discoveries likely to add to mine life.
Experienced, motivated and innovative management team.
