Global Mineral Resource Estimate

ABM has completed an update of the global Inferred and Indicated Resource estimates for the Old Pirate High-Grade Gold Deposit (refer to Appendix 1 & 2 for details). The latest global resource estimate has been developed by integrating previous work (pre-2013) with the 2014 drill results, grade control data from trial mining and updates to the geological model.

The 2014 grade control drilling was largely consistent with the previous drilling and variations in geological modelling result in a modest reduction in tonnes and an increase in grade compared to the 2013 resource. The confidence level of the resource in the upper portions of the system has increased, however due to the nature of the system is not presented with sufficient control to define as a Measured Resource estimate. Refer to Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 in link below for further details.
