Western Gold Resources is optimizing its Gold Duke Project mining plan in light of the higher gold prices in 2023.
The current plan includes eight shallow pits of oxide ore to be mined.
Mining approvals are in place for the Eagle, Emu, and Golden Monarch deposits, with approval for the Gold King deposit to be submitted soon.
Western Gold Resources is in discussions with nearby plants within an economic radius of the project and has started heap-leach testing.
