Notes to editors
Stratex International Plc is an AIM-quoted exploration and development company currently focusing on gold and base metal opportunities in Turkey. Its proven strategy is to discover and develop new projects by focused low-cost exploration, thus adding maximum value prior to optioning/joint venturing or selling on to a dedicated mining company.
Stratex's portfolio covers 11 licence blocks in central and western Turkey totalling approximately 1,630 sq km. These include the Inlice high-sulphidation gold deposit in the Konya Volcanic Belt, the Altıntepe multi-occurrence prospect comprising a number of discrete gold-bearing zones, Doğanbey - a new porphyry gold-molybdenum target within the Konya Volcanic Belt, Muratdere - a porphyry gold-copper-molybdenum occurrence and Karaağaç - a partially exposed, gently dipping gold-bearing zone. Ongoing resource drilling and exploration programmes are underway on a number of these licences, focused on increasing Stratex's total resources, currently standing in excess of 1 million ounces of gold (including 28,600 oz gold equivalent). Furthermore, the Company has a healthy project pipeline portfolio, which it continues to strengthen through the acquisition of additional licences.
Stratex has a strategic partnership with Canadian major mining company, Teck Cominco Limited, which has an 8.8% stake in the Company, enabling the two parties to pool expertise, skills and databases to identify potential projects.
