operate at 125,000 oz pa instead of Harmony's recent target of 200,000 oz pa, and this should provide better economics as well as a focus on better grades. A search spend is also taking place in the eastern goldfields on the line of mining leases from Davyhurst - where there is a mill - through Riverina, north to Mt Ida. That figure could be more than $A6 M ($US5.4 M) pa. As Monarch brings mines at Riverina and Mt Ida into production the potential may be there to open up new areas on which Monarch was currently targeting potential new resources. Mt Ida's established shaft and workings would provide a high grade (24 g/t) underground ore feed. Kiernan indicated that the Minjar project in the Yalgoo goldfield with a resource of 400,000 oz at a grade of 2.4 g/t and a gold plant was now outside of the regional search focus and may be sold. The company will now raise a further $10 M ($US9 M) as capital development money for Riverina and the Missouri open cut in Davyhurst's Siberia group of claims. Monarch is the first Australian mining stock to list on the new Dubai Stock Exchange. Kiernan told Mineweb that this foundling exchange should have a strong market impact within three years.
"The company will now raise a further $10 M ($US9 M) as capital development money for Riverina and the Missouri open cut in Davyhurst's Siberia group of claims."
