Rusina Mining
Rusina Mining N.L. is an active mining exploration company that is focused on the emerging Philippine mining sector. The Company has defined a JORC compliant resource estimate for nickel laterites at its Acoje tenement on the island of Luzon and will commence mining operations in the second half of 2007. The Acoje property also hosts chromite, nickel sulphides and platinum group metals. Rusina is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, code RML and the London Stock Exchange (AIM) code RMLA.
Rusina Mining says continued to make progress in first half
Rusina Mining NL said that, despite the significant deterioration in global economic conditions during its financial first half, the company continued to make progress across its key areas of operation in the Philippines.
Most significantly, the period to December 31 2008 saw the finalisation of the pre-feasibility study for the nickel heap leach project at Acoje, utilising partner European Nickel PLC's heap leach technology, the group said in a statement.
Rusina and European Nickel have now moved into the definitive feasibility study (DFS) phase with the construction of the trial leach facility to demonstrate the large scale permeability and recovery of the Acoje ore. First leaching is on schedule for April 2009.
European Nickel is funding the DFS by spending US$10 million to earn a 40 percent interest in the project.
The highlights of the PFS include a JORC compliant indicated resource of 34.41 million tons at 1.09 percent nickel from an inferred plus indicated resource of 50.14 million tons at 1.06 percent nickel using a 0.8 percent cut off grade. Annual production is estimated at 24,500 tons of nickel and 930 tons of cobalt. Total development is estimated to cost US$498 million.
Rusina reported revenue of A$68,687 in the first half compared with nil a year earlier and net losses of A$1.43 million from profits of A$338,901 previously.
