Drilling to continue throughout 2021 to build the resources and reserves of Tabakoroni to strengthen the financial case for a future underground mine development
A prefeasibility study completed last year estimated that the Tabakoroni underground mine could produce some 80 000 oz/y of gold at an all-in sustaining cost of $974/oz over an initial four-year mine life. The project was estimated to require a capital investment of $86-million, with total project capital spend estimated at $118-million.
The Resolute share price has had a steady decline since hitting the high in the middle of 2020 (81.07). The downtrend line is close to being tested and a break could mean a move to higher levels. The main resistance is now at the red horizontal line near 49.50. On the downside, a break of the wave low at 38.81 would mean the downtrend is back on.
