AIM-listed gold miner Goldplat Plc, which operates the Anumso project in Ghana, got its operating licence for the project renewed for three years. The firm can thus continue processing mining residues at its operations to produce and export gold and concentrates.
According to the renewal’s terms, Goldplat will pay the Ghanaian government a 5% royalty for all minerals it gets via its operations. Also, the firm is to develop the project which it recently announced regarding an elution plant. The plant should arrive in Ghana before June 30, 2017, installed before December 31, the same year, and be operational by June 30, 2018.
“We are in complete agreement with the government regarding the need to install and commission an elution plant, which will significantly increase our operational capacity […]”, said CEO of Goldplat, Gerard Kisbey-Green.
Goldplat Plc is a premiere gold mining company holding assets, not only in Ghana, but in Kenya and South Africa as well. In 2014, it was awarded in South Africa the Responsible Gold.
