Company Statement:
SOLOMON GOLD, the copper and gold specialist with exploration tenements in Solomon Islands and Australia.
Solomon Gold Plc's original and core gold exploration projects are located on Solomon Islands and remain a major focus of the Company. However, the Company has extended its strategy to include becoming an integrated gold explorer, developer and miner with projects in lower risk theatres as well as the Solomon Islands.
Solomon Gold carries a diverse portfolio of higher risk high reward exploration projects in Solomon Islands and lower risk projects which are more advanced towards resource definition in Queensland, where exploration costs are approximately one third of that in Melanesia. Solomon Gold's projects include Guadalcanal and Fauro (Solomon Islands) and Rannes and Mt Perry (Queensland, Australia).
Solomon Gold’s Board includes accomplished professionals with strong track records in the areas of exploration, mine development, investment, finance and law. Board and Management have significantly vested interests in the Company holding approximately 16.7% of its issued share capital. Solomon Gold is based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia and listed on London's Alternative Investment Market in 2006.
