(Alliance News) - IronRidge Resources Ltd on Tuesday said it has begun the second phase of drilling at its Zaranou gold project in Cote d'Ivoire.
The programme will last roughly one month and the company has made site plans to manage health and safety due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
"Field operations at the Zaranou Gold Project have now resumed following a temporary operations shut-down," IronRidge noted.
Chief Operating Officer Len Kolff said: "We are excited to commence our second phase drill programme at Zaranou, and to build on the strong results released from the first phase drill programme.
"After a short period of operations shut-down, we have carefully reviewed in-country operational procedures, discussed operational impacts with key stakeholders and communities, and implemented a Covid-19 management plan allowing us to safely resume work."
IronRidge shares closed 6.0% higher at 10.10 pence each in London on Tuesday.
