Asante Gold Corp. (TSXV:ASE) announced that the TSX Venture Exchange has granted it conditional approval to gain a joint venture interest in Goknet Mining Company Ltd.’s Kubi gold mine.
As quoted in the press release:
Subject to entering into a Definitive Agreement with Goknet, financing and final closing, the joint venture plans on developing the Kubi Gold Mine as a custom milling and direct shipping operation as it is located near major mining and milling infrastructure between AngloGold Ashanti’s 60 million ounce* Obuasi Gold Mine and Perseus Mining Limited’s 6.6 million ounce* Edikan Gold Mine (* pre-mining resource, source company annual reports).
This proposed plan will minimize the required time and capital (estimated at 16 months and US$20 million) to reach production, subject to future exploration results, at 500 tpd or ~30,000 oz Au per year. Financing is expected to be primarily via secured debt in order to minimize future equity dilution.
