Malmyzh Flanks Discussion and Project Overview. The Malmyzh Flanks exploration license (74.1 sq km) surrounds the previously granted Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses (152.8 sq km) on three sides, and provides additional areas for potential development with improved access to the Amur River. In addition, the new license includes a projection of the Freedom “magnetic cluster” to the north-northeast, and possible extensions of the reconnaissance drilled copper-gold mineralization at the North Slope and Destiny prospects. This exploration potential further highlights the project’s upside, which includes four inferred resource deposits open for expansion and eight additional prospects with drilled porphyry copper-gold mineralization.
