Trial Mining Permit Received for Old Pirate High-Grade Gold Project
Previously the Company advised that it was required to hold the gold product from the trial mining in secure trust until the Mineral Lease was granted.
ABM has now received notification from the Department of Mines and Energy that the gold product from
the trial mining can be sold immediately by the Company to cover the costs of the work.
The authorisation to conduct the Trial Mining from the Department of Mines and Energy and the Central Land Council allows ABM to complete the bulk sample under an exploration lease.
