Commenting on Newcrest’s decision to assume management of the Wilki Project, Antipa Managing Director, Roger Mason, said:

“Newcrest’s decision to assume operatorship of our Wilki Farm-in Project from July is perfect timing. With our other major partners, Rio Tinto and IGO, already operating our Citadel JV and Paterson Farm-in Projects, respectively, this allows Antipa to dedicate its focus to the rapid
advancement of our 100%-owned Minyari Dome Project. The recent substantial resource upgrade at Minyari, to 1.8 Moz gold, readily demonstrates why we are now targeting a stand-alone mining and processing operation at Minyari via the usual evaluation studies. Running in parallel, our major partners will be funding significant greenfield discovery exploration programmes on 5,000km2 of world-class Paterson Province ground. Antipa enjoys the best of both worlds in this respect, with exciting times ahead.”
