Robust Resources Limited (‘Robust’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to announce that the Company has made substantial progress on its ongoing exploration and development program at its world-class mineral deposits of oxide gold-silver and polymetallic base and precious metals on Romang Island, Indonesia.
In January 2012, Robust released its maiden JORC code compliant mineral resource estimate, which represents an important platform on which the Company will conduct project development studies for both precious and base metals. The estimate contains 1.18 Moz gold equivalent in JORC Indicated and Inferred categories, including 592,000 ounces gold and 27.7 million ounces silver. Two thirds of the resource is in the Indicated resource category. Base metals within the polymetallic sulphide resource shell total 697 million pounds lead; 678 million pounds zinc; and 95 million pounds copper. The tabulation of the mineral resources is appended.
