These figures represent a 27 % increase in total gold resources compared with the previous update.
Silver, lead and zinc resources associated with flotation processing total 2.23 million tonnes grading 70 g/t silver, 2.7 % lead and 2.8 % zinc, containing 5.0 million ounces silver, 59.6 thousand tonnes lead and 62.3 thousand tonnes zinc.
