Notes for Editors:
Greatland Gold plc is a London Stock Exchange AIM-listed
(AIM:GGP) natural resource exploration and development company with
a current focus on precious and base metals.
The Company has six main projects; four situated in Western
Australia and two in Tasmania. All projects are 100% owned by
Greatland.
In March 2019, Greatland signed a Farm-in Agreement with
Newcrest Operations Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newcrest
Mining Limited (ASX:NCM), to explore and develop Greatland's
Havieron gold-copper deposit in the Paterson region of Western
Australia. Newcrest has the right to earn up to a 70% interest in a
12-block area within E45/4701 that covers the Havieron target by
spending up to US$65 million.
Greatland is seeking to identify large mineral deposits in areas
that have not been subject to extensive exploration previously. It
is widely recognised that the next generation of large deposits
will come from such under-explored areas and Greatland is applying
advanced exploration techniques to investigate a number of
carefully selected targets within its focused licence
portfolio.
The Company is also actively investigating a range of new
opportunities in precious and strategic metals and will update the
market on new opportunities as and when appropriate.
