Test results show that ore bodies 3 and 8 will provide a significant improvement in terms of gold grade, with 3.7g/t currently being achieved.

Furthermore, exploratory drilling reveal that ore body 11 is significantly thicker at between 50%-70% below the 200m above sea level mark.

GoldBridges Global Resources CEO Aidar Assaubayev said: “We are on time and on budget with our mine expansion and we are fully focused on progressively increasing gold production towards our target production rate of 100,000oz per annum in 2019.

“We are very pleased with progress made to date and look forward to updating shareholders again later in the year.”

For the development, company has bought a T1D Atlas Copco boomer drilling machine and three Sandvik UG trucks TH430 capable of carrying 30t to assist underground mining operations. An additional Atlas Copco Diamec rig for further exploratory drilling is expected to be delivered in the near-future.
