Niklas Ponnert said: "The combined group will benefit from increased scale through the creation of a portfolio of contiguous copper porphyry targets in a highly prospective region, access to one of the largest regional geophysical and surface geochemistry datasets as well as an enhanced, experienced team with complementary skill sets. Recent developments in Mongolia have been positive and this transaction creates a stronger foundation upon which Kincora can continue to develop."
