Cardinal increases Namdini footprint in Ghana
PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Dual-listed Cardinal Resources has increased the mining licence area of its Namdini gold project, in Ghana, more than threefold.
The ASX- and TSX-listed company on Thursday reported that the mining licence for Namdini had increased from an area of 19 km2 to 63 km2, with the licence stretching over a 15-year term.
“It is most pleasing to have the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources and the Minerals Commission of Ghana support our mining licence area expansion,” said Cardinal CEO and MD Archi Koimtsidis.
“The expansion aligns with the company’s plan to not only significantly optimise the location of key infrastructure such as tailings storage facilities, stockpiles and waste dumps, but also to further explore financial benefits during the front-end engineering and design of the Namdini project.”
He added that the enlarged project area also allowed Cardinal to expand its exploration activities immediately south of Namdini.
An October feasibility study into the Namdini project estimated that it would produce some 4.2-million ounces of gold over a mine life of 15 years, with an estimated 1.1-million ounces expected over the first three years of the operation. Namdini is expected to cost $390-million to develop.
