Notes:
Ortac Resources Limited is an AIM listed exploration and development company focussed on natural resource projects in Europe. Its primary focus is on precious metals exploration and development within the Carpatho-Balkan Metallogenic Belt, primarily the Central Slovakian Volcanic Field.
The Company has a current JORC compliant resource of 1.1Moz of gold equivalent from its Šturec Project in Slovakia, and a scoping study on the project was completed in January 2012. The Company's objective is to complete a bankable feasibility study (BFS) and environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) of the project, with a view to bringing the Šturec Project into production for the benefit of all stakeholders.
The Company's strategy is to utilise its highly experienced board and management team and its solid foothold in Central Europe to consolidate additional natural resource development opportunities to build shareholder value.
