Name of the Project
Devon Pit gold project.

Location
The project is located within the wholly owned Lake Carey gold project, in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia.

Project Owner/s
Matsa Resources.

Project Description
A scoping study has confirmed the near-term openpit production potential at the Devon pit.

The project has indicated and inferred mineral resources estimated at 614 000 t grading 4.1 g/t gold.

The study proposes production starting from surface and is estimated at 37 000 oz gold at 4.64 g/t gold from 264 000 t, with a 93% recovery.

The study is based on ore being processed at Matsa’s proposed treatment facility; however, metallurgical testworks have indicated that Devon Pit ore is amenable to treatment at any of the nearby standard carbon-in-pulp/carbon-in-leach processing facilities.
