Clogau Gold Mine Update
Revised Dewatering Permits Granted
Alba Mineral Resources Plc (AIM: ALBA) is very pleased to
announce that Natural Resources Wales ("NRW") has granted the
Company's applications for formal variations to its existing
discharge and abstraction permits to enable it to dewater the Lower
Llechfraith workings, its principal gold target at the Company's
100% owned Clogau-St David's Gold Mine in north Wales ("Clogau" or
the "Mine"), at significantly higher rates.
As a result, the Company expects to be able to proceed to a
successful completion of the dewatering exercise at the Lower
Llechfraith workings in the first two weeks of January.
Key Points
-- Revised discharge and abstraction permits have been granted
to Alba, allowing the Company to dewater the Lower Llechfraith
workings at a rate of up to 250 cubic metres per day, a significant
increase to the previous maximum of up to 100 cubic metres per
day.
-- Safety and access works on Level 3 and towards Level 4 have
now been substantially completed.
-- Higher-rate dewatering will commence from early January, with
completion of the dewatering exercise targeted for mid-January.
-- Once Level 4 has been fully dewatered, Alba and its
contractors will access Level 4 to carry out a risk assessment,
plan and execute any further safety works required and carry out
initial exploration surveys.
-- In respect of the airborne geophysical survey being
undertaken over Alba's key regional gold targets, Alba's
contractors have advised that due to the weather conditions it has
not been possible to date to survey the Hafod Owen, Gwynfynydd and
Castle Carndochan target areas and that this will now be deferred
to January, weather permitting.
George Frangeskides, Executive Chairman, commented:
"We are delighted to have now received the revised permits which
will allow us to complete the dewatering of the Lower Llechfraith
workings. I would like to acknowledge the cooperation of the NRW
permitting teams in helping us to achieve this outcome before the
year's end.
"We look forward to completing the dewatering as soon as
possible in January and then finally setting foot on Level 4, the
first time this key gold target will have been accessible to anyone
for decades."
