Amara Mining plc Commencement of Trucking of material from Sega

17.09.2013  |  Marketwired
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwired - Sep 17, 2013) - Amara Mining plc ("Amara" or "the Company") (AIM:AMA / TSX:AMZ), the West African focused gold mining company, is pleased to announce that it has begun trucking material from its Sega Gold Project ("Sega") in Burkina Faso to the neighbouring processing plant at its Kalsaka Gold Mine ("Kalsaka").

Sega is approximately 20km from Kalsaka and was acquired by Amara from Orezone Gold Corporation in Q2 2012. Since then, Amara has successfully permitted the project, receiving the Mining Licence on 18 July 2013. The first material from Sega reached Kalsaka yesterday.

The average head grade of the Sega material is 2.41g/t (i), a 113% increase on the head grade achieved from the Kalsaka ore in H1 2013 (1.13g/t) (ii). Amara re-optimised the mine plan for Sega in Q2 2013 at a gold price of US$1,100 per ounce in order to adopt a lower risk approach during the current challenging market conditions. The material trucked from Sega is expected to strengthen production and generate robust cash flow in the near term. The re-optimised plan also has a positive impact on cash costs.

Peter Spivey, Chief Executive Officer of Amara, commented:"With the commencement of trucking, we are just days away from processing the first Sega material and stacking it on the heap leach pads at Kalsaka. We are firmly on track to deliver on our promise of successfully integrating the two projects and this is expected to strengthen production and reduce costs, as a result of the higher head grade of the Sega material. Production will continue in Burkina Faso in the near term and we remain focused on our strategy of using our cash flow to underpin our growth assets."
