PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Gold miner Kingsrose Mining has secured the final approvals for its Way Linggo and Talang Santo openpit operations, after the Indonesian equivalent of an environmental impact assessment was approved by the Indonesian Ministry of Environment and Forestry.
Kingsrose on Wednesday said that the approval secured the company’s near-term production and growth strategy at Way Linggo, with all permitting now in place to allow for ore production from the newly established Talang Santo gold/silver openpit mine to start, and for production from the Way Linggo openpit mine to continue.
Talang Santo is expected to have an initial mine life of 22 months, with ore from the operation to be processed in conjunction with the Way Linggo opencut ore at the Way Linggo processing facility.
