("Tigers") is pleased to announce that community consultation in respect of planned exploration activities at the Jelai Gold project is complete and we have full support from the local government, community and village leaders. Community development programs ("CSR") commenced prior to exploration activities with sustainable projects that are aimed at contributing to the welfare of local people. The programs will involve more than one hundred local community members (from three villages), and group members will be trained and mentored by KGC and Tiger's multi-disciplined community team in forage and fodder cultivation, farming, animal husbandry, accounting and small business development.
A combined KGC - Tigers technical team is on site and has completed the following activities:
1. Refurbished the office in Tanjung Selor;
2. Commenced base camp construction;
3. Commenced camp construction at Mewet Prospect, to accommodate drilling activities;
4. Repaired 50% of the access road to the drill & base camp;
5. Established contracts for key supplies such as fuel;
6. Spotted the first drill hole and surveyed access trails.
The Mewet base camp should be completed by early March and drilling is expected to commence immediately following completion of the camp. The first proposed hole (KTR-MEW1100-001) is targeting high grade shoots at deeper levels of the epithermal gold - silver mineralization intersected in KGC's JCM-067 (9.50m @ 7.08 g/t Au). PT Indodrill Indonesia has been contracted to conduct the Phase I drill program comprising 8,000 metres in approximately 30 holes.
