By GlobalDataCopAur is actively working to upgrade and expand the current mineral resources at the Kinsley Project.
CopAur Minerals CEO Jeremy Yaseniuk said: “Acquiring the remaining 18.74% ownership interest in the Kinsley Project will provide us with full control over the project and the ability to concentrate our efforts on advancing this exciting project.
“We completed reverse circulation and diamond core drilling programme in late 2023 at Kinsley Mountain within the Main Pit North area located one kilometre south-east of the Western Flank Zone, which intersected high-grade, near-surface oxide gold intercepts with the gold hosting Dunderberg shale 75m outside the current resource pit shell providing opportunities for near-pit resource expansion.
“We now hope to initiate the integrated exploration data analysis to further advance the understanding of the Kinsley Project mineralisation that will increase the efficiency and robustness of future exploration, targeting resource definition and development work.”
