Mining

Red River Resources continues to improve production at Thalanga operation

Record tonnes mined from West 45 - up 29% from Q3, zinc concentrate production up 24% from Q3.

Red River Resources Limited (ASX:RVR) has achieved improved operating performance from its Thalanga Operation in Northern Queensland during the June quarter.

Notably, electrical switchgear upgrade at the West 45 mine materially reduced downtime due to power outages.

Combined with increases in production drilling and cemented rock filling productivity rates, Red River mined record tonnes at the West 45.
