Kingston re-enters underground development at SOZ
PERTH (miningweekly.com) – ASX-listed Kingston Resources has started work to re-enter the underground development at the Southern Ore Zone (SOZ) in preparation to start the next phase of mining at the Mineral Hill copper and gold mine, in New South Wales.
“We are excited to return underground at SOZ and initiate the process of restoring underground mining operations. The already established extensive infrastructure, both underground and on surface, is an enormous advantage for Kingston. This is the groundwork for a sustainable, long-term operation and our whole team is dedicated to the success of this project,” said Kingston MD Andrew Corbett.
The initial work will focus on safety checks, reinstating ventilation, power and pumping, while underground drilling is planned for the early part of the December quarter to infill and extend the current underground mineral resource.
The mineral resource at SOZ currently stands at 3.8-million tonnes, at 1.29 g/t gold, 19.2 g/t silver, 0.9% copper, 1.6% lead and 1.4% zinc.
