Rox Resources closes in on production stoping at Youanmi - Australian Mining

AI desk brief

Rox Resources says its Youanmi Gold Mine is closing in on production stoping, with underground development extending beyond the original DFS mine plan and the surface stockpile building toward the 190,000t at 3.3g/t commissioning target. The latest infill drilling at United North returned strong high-grade intersections, including UNN26_018 with 10.30m at 12.46g/t Au (including 1.56m at 43.42g/t) and UNN26_013 with 9.77m at 11.17g/t Au, helping de-risk ore delivery ahead of mining.

Rox said the results both confirm planned stopes and indicate upside beyond the DFS, while ore drives on the 2356mRL and 2341mRL levels have extended about 125m further along strike than designed. Final grade control is expected in coming weeks before stoping begins.
