Update: TGO costs halved, DZP all but gets thumbs up

Alkane’s Tomingley Gold Operations (TGO) gold mine has materially improved in terms of its operational performance quarter-on-quarter. Its all-in sustaining costs of production are down 47% from end year FY14 and upgrades to its resources (up 2.2%) and reserves (up a significant 41%) estimates are positive for the TGO’s profitability and mine life. The NSW authorities have conditionally approved the Dubbo Zirconia Project (DZP) (although final clarification is still required and is expected by year-end), which should trigger conversion of MoUs to off-take agreements and, in turn, financing of the project.
