Sukari reserve growth supports roadmap to 500,000 ounce per annum production
Martin Horgan, CEO, commented: "Today marks significant progress against our Sukari reset plans. The transformed approach to the management of Centamin has delivered excellent results including a net 1.1 million ounce Mineral Reserve growth at Sukari - representing the largest reserve increase in ten years. Within our Sukari 300,000 metre budgeted drill programe for 2022, we have an active pipeline of identified resource conversion and extensional drill targets which gives us significant confidence in continuing to grow this world class asset.
Our improved geological model underpins our new robust 12+ year mine schedule and from this we have identified a clear roadmap to consistently producing greater than 500,000 ounces per annum from the Sukari Gold Mine over the next decade."
Centamin is hosting a virtual investor presentation today, Wednesday 8 December 2021, for investors and analysts. The event will be hosted by Martin Horgan, CEO, and Ross Jerrard, CFO, with the presentation starting at 10.00 am GMT (UK time). Martin and Ross will present an updated life of mine plan for the Company's flagship asset, the Sukari Gold Mine, including further identified opportunities, framing the long-term vision for the asset.
