NioGold president and CEO, Robert Wares, said:

This final set of excellent results concludes our definition drilling campaign on Marban.  The program included more than 72,000 metres of drilling and the Marban deposit delivered many new intersections in previously modelled barren rock. The drill program hence significantly improved the open pit potential of the deposit.
