Thor Mining still awaiting results from latest drilling at Molyhill
In a trading update at the end of 2008, the group had said developing the Molyhill tungsten-molybdenum project remains the main focus and that it has met with many potential financiers and partners with a view to getting the project into operation.
In its results statement today, the company said while it has made good progress in reducing capital and operating costs for the project, international molybdenum prices have reduced in line with pricing for other metals over the period to end December 2008. This has pushed the development timetable back until product pricing is more conducive for the necessary capital raising.
Since the end of the first half, Thor has continued to explore its portfolio of tenements for economic deposits of uranium and rare earths.
