Russell Lamming, Chief Executive Officer of Keras, commented, "Today's update from Calidus further demonstrates the potential size and scale of the Warrawoona Project as the Calidus team focus on enhancing the current JORC Resource of 712,000oz Au and advancing the PFS ahead of publication in 2019.
"It is encouraging to note both the high-grade infill results from Copenhagen, in addition to the eastern extension at Klondyke and I look forward to receiving updates from the maiden drill programme at the St Georges Shear. Work is clearly progressing on multiple fronts and I look forward to regular news flow over the coming weeks and months as the Calidus team continue to prove-up the significant resource potential of Warrawoona.
"As part of our commitment to proactively engage with shareholders, I am pleased to announce our first Questions & Answers session which is scheduled for next week. I welcome any questions from shareholders relating to Calidus' ongoing drilling at Warrawoona, or our recent news relating to our funded bulk sampling programme at our Nayega Manganese Project in Togo, or any other matters relating to how we intend to grow your company. Should this prove to be fruitful exercise for shareholders, we will schedule regular sessions such as this to ensure our investors have a well-organised and thorough platform to air their concerns and pose questions to the Keras board."
