Centerra reserve increase
10th Feb 2012
TORONTO, Feb 10 – The success of its 2011 drilling program has enabled Centerra Gold to lift its reserves and resources estimates to 8.1M oz of contained gold.
Centerra says the exploration has allowed a 9% increase before accounting for the 793,000 oz processed at Kumtor in the Kyrgyz Republic and Boroo in Mongolia during 2011. The reserves were estimated using a US$1200/oz gold price, up from $1000/oz in December 2010.
The total measured and indicated resource base has grown by 36% to 6.7M oz and 393,000 oz has been added to the high-grade inferred SB Underground resource.
An initial measured and indicated resource of 824,000 oz has been outlined at the ATO project in Mongolia together with a new resource of 289,000 oz indicated and 211,000 oz inferred on the Kara Beldyr project in Russia.
