Coyote Plant Refurbishment

ABM Resources is accessing the Coyote Gold Plant under agreement with Tanami Gold NL (refer announcement 07/07/2014). Como Engineering is on-site and has commenced the refurbishment work on the Coyote Plant. Refurbishment work involves cleaning of screens, upgrading of conveyor belts, work on the leach tanks as well as general maintenance. This work is going to plan and on schedule.

Resource Mining Pty Ltd (our mining contractor) has mobilised to site and site-works are well advanced. The waste rock and initial mining footprint areas have been cleared and the pre-strip mining of waste has commenced. Some surface ore has been moved and stockpiled on the newly formed ROM pad area with mining of ore expected to commence in earnest within 3 weeks.

The access road to site has been graded and upgraded. This road will be used as the haul road to the Coyote Gold Plant.

The commissioning of the Coyote Gold Plant and first ore processing is expected during May 2015
