Wolf Minerals Awards Assay Laboratory Contract to SGS

Wolf Minerals Limited (ASX:WLF,LSE:WLFE) awarded the assay laboratory contract for its Drakelands open-pit mine to SGS. The mine is being constructed at the company’s Hemerdon tungsten and tin project in Devon, in Southwest England.

As quoted in the press release:

Under the terms of the contract SGS will provide all of the necessary assay laboratory services at the Drakelands mine for a five year period. Services will include the assay of grade control samples, process plant samples and final product samples. As an independent and internationally recognised provider of assaying services, SGS will provide verification and certification of the products being sent to customers.

Wolf Managing Director Russell Clark stated:

 We are very pleased to be partnering with SGS at Drakelands. Our custom built laboratory, operated by their very experienced team, will provide efficient and accurate assaying at the site, with 13 jobs created as a result. As we continue to build the mine and processing plant at Drakelands, it’s very pleasing to be able to lock in this contract at rates similar to those used in the DFS, which will contribute to Wolf being a low cost producer of tungsten.
