en.Wedoany.com Reported - Rox Resources is advancing multiple work fronts at the Youanmi Gold Project in Western Australia, including the Youanmi decline stripping, commencement of main pit mining, and construction of the processing plant, bringing the project close to production.

The Youanmi decline, originally constructed in the 1990s, will be rehabilitated and stripped to accommodate modern equipment, providing faster and lower-cost access to the main underground orebody compared to constructing a new decline. Mining at the main pit has commenced, and earthworks for the access road to the Pollard decline are progressing. These efforts are expected to open a third mining front within the coming months.

At the Pollard decline, preparatory work continues, with blasting set to begin once ground support is completed. The decline is planned to provide access to high-grade future ore sources and support additional drilling to extend mine life. Mining volumes at the Joint North area continue to ramp up, exceeding feasibility study expectations.

Rox Resources Managing Director Phill Wilding stated that the company achieved a significant milestone this month, with the Joint North face beginning to advance along the orebody strike and starting to build a high-grade ore stockpile. Major earthworks for the processing plant are nearing completion, and the company has signed an engineering, procurement, and construction contract with Interquip, with prices locked in and consistent with the feasibility study. All remaining major supply contracts are entering final approval stages, with pricing still aligned with the feasibility study.
