Selwyn Resources will secure financing for the project, which includes raising $30m through a bond issue.
The firm is also planning to test the pit dewatering system at the mine and apply for an industrial permit this month.
Selwyn Resources’ vice-president Joe Ringwald said that once the test is successful, the firm will appeal for approval to begin the pit dewatering.
