Asia: Exploration Drilling Programmes

In 2022, SRK Kazakhstan completed the first mineral resource estimate (MRE) reported according to the JORC Code for the Kyzyl-Alma epithermal gold mine in Uzbekistan. Kyzyl-Alma is an operating underground mine which commenced production in 1976. Mining is carried out by sublevel caving. In 2020, SRK was commissioned to design and to manage underground exploration and infill drilling programmes. The work also included structural geology studies and mineral processing reviews. Afterwards, the MRE mining team undertook optimisation studies, mine planning and costing for the pre-feasibility study.
