Cohiba CEO Mordechai Benedikt said:
“This discovery being just 2km to the East of our ground is very exciting for Cohiba as it emphasizes the prospectively of our Olympic Domain Project. Although we couldn’t have predicted such great results… its proximity to BHP Olympic Dam and the Carrapateena mine was a main consideration why the Company pursued this transaction in the first instance.
We are convinced with BHP’s results, this will only grow stronger and strengthen CHK’s position for our shareholders. Finally, the company is in a strong financial position to commence this exciting phase of exploration of the project.”
