PERTH (miningweekly.com) – The Thalanga zinc project, in Queensland, is a step closer to restart after owner Red River Resources awarded an underground mining contract to PYBAR Mining Services.

PYBAR is expected to mobilise to the site within the next two weeks and start underground mining operations at West 45 shortly thereafter.

Red River is fully funded to restart the Thalanga mine, with production set to start in the second half of 2017. The project is expected to produce an average 21 400 t/y of zinc, 3 600 t/y of copper, 5 000 t/y of lead, 2 000 oz/y of gold and 370 000 oz/y of silver in concentrate over an initial five-year mine life.

The project has been on care and maintenance since 2012.
