The group stated that, according to RSC Consulting Ltd's report dated July 19, 2024, and prepared in accordance with the JORC Code (2012), the estimated in-situ mineral resources amount to approximately 7.64 million tonnes of ore, with an average gold grade of 0.69 grams per tonne, containing about 169,300 ounces of gold.
