SHARE PURCHASE PLAN EXTENSION
Kentor Gold Limited (ASX code: KGL) (Kentor or the Company) is extending the closing date of its Share Purchase Plan (SPP) to the 23[rd] October 2009. The extension will increase the opportunity for shareholders to participate in the SPP
There has been an increased level of interest in the SPP following the Company ’ s ASX announcement on 8 October 2009 in relation to the Andash Gold-Copper Mining Project.
As announced at that time, the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic has declined to take up its pre-emptive right to acquire the Andash gold copper project. This clears the way for the Kentor Gold to exercise the option to purchase 80% of the Andash project from Aurum Mining Plc.
The high grade, low cost project is targeted for production in 2011 at the average annual rate of 60,000 oz gold and 5,000 tonnes copper for eight years.
The Kyrgyz Republic is a significant gold producer from mining operations that include the world class Kumtor mine.
Andash is located in the Tien Shan Gold Belt, one of the world ’ s major gold provinces spanning central Asia.
