Richard Poulden, Chairman and CEO of Wishbone Gold said:

"2017 has been a year of continued growth for the Wishbone Group. The growth is primarily attributable to the continuing expansion of our operations in Africa. With various initiatives rolling out, and inroads being made in other African nations, I am optimistic about the suitability of our artisanal mining model in the continent.

As we look ahead, we see opportunities for 2018 in all our areas of operation, namely Central America, Africa and Asia. The geographic spread is beginning to provide some resilience to our trading and, as we complete the reverse integration process, supplying expertise and equipment to artisanal miners, this will serve to lock up the supply chain to a greater extent and improve margins. With this spread of sources of gold over multiple continents we have a solid trading base for the future."
