Australia shines on the world stage with the largest reserves of gold
Astral Resources taking universal approach to developing Mandilla Project
For the past 3 years, Perth-based gold and base metal exploration company Astral Resources (ASX:AAR) has focused on building its resource base at the Mandilla Gold Project, located in the Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia.
In the eyes of Managing Director Marc Ducler, the emphasis that has been placed on growing the resource base has paid off as the project is approaching a scale that will greatly support mine development.
Currently, Mandilla hosts a mineral resource of 32.9 million tonnes @ 1.1g/t Au for 1.15 million ounces of contained gold, as well as a Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) 30 million tonnes @ 1.1g/t Au for 1.03 million ounces which Astral says has increased by an average of 28% every 6 months for the past 18 months.
