SIMBERI GOLD PRODUCTION RESUMES
Allied Gold Limited has resumed gold production at its 100%-owned Simberi gold mine in Papua New Guinea.
In the interests of major stakeholders and with the full support of Landowners and its national employees Allied Gold today successfully petitioned the PNG National Court of Justice to return to work.
Simberi is expected to return quickly to steady state production - with 6,000 ounces expected in the month of April. During March, the Company took the opportunity to advance a number of planned plant maintenance activities and mining operations were continued.
The run of mine (ROM) stock pile has been built to 90,000 tonnes with 75,000 tonnes at Pigiput and 15,000 tonnes at the Sorowar pit. Additionally, a significant amount of waste has been pre-striped in all pits.
Gold Ridge Commissioning
At the Gold Ridge mine in the Solomon Islands, commissioning is progressing well since the first gold pour on the 8(th) of March.
Ore on the ROM pad, predominantly from the Valehaichichi pit, stands at 200,000 tonnes with the mine fleet increasing productivity towards 14,000 tonnes per day of ore and waste. In the Namachamata pit, some pockets of ore have been taken and the main pit area is scheduled to be accessed in late May.
The mill throughput has been progressively increased with rates achieved of 85%-90% of the planned 310 tonnes per hour production rate. The first gold sales from Gold Ridge are expected this month.
