Completion of 55% earn-in

 

 

Orogen Gold Plc (AIM:ORE), the AIM listed mineral exploration company focussed on Gold exploration and development in Europe announces that the Company has completed the 55% earn-in to the Deli Jovan Gold exploration project in Serbia, in accordance with its agreement with Reservoir Minerals Inc.

Notes to Editors

 

The Deli Jovan gold project is in eastern Serbia, the site comprising two shallow underground Gold mines at Rusman and Gindusa, about 6 kilometres apart along a major shear zone. Production at the mines was halted in the 1930s before the commencement of the Second World War, and was never restarted. The mines lay untouched for over 70 years until Orogen Gold reopened access, dewatered and restarted exploration at Deli Jovan in 2011.
