Georgian Mining Corporation provides an update regarding permitting for the Bolnisi Copper and Gold Project ('the Bolnisi Project') in Georgia in which the Company holds a 50% interest. The company announced that joint venture company Georgian Copper & Gold JSC ('GCG'), in which GEO holds a 50% interest, has received confirmation of tenure from the National Agency of Mines ('NAM') for two key deposits in the Bolnisi Project licence area, namely Kvemo Bolnisi East and Dambludi. Kvemo Bolnisi East has been the focus of much of the Company's investment to date, including a significant discovery in 2017, and it is the deposit which is envisaged to commence production first. Dambludi is also an advanced project in the licence area, which has yielded attractive grades of up to 14.3 g/t gold and 4.16 % copper from grab sampling. Alongside this tenure confirmation, correspondence from NAM seeks to return the remainder of the Bolnisi Project licence area, including three further deposits identified by the Company, being Kvemo Bolnisi West, Tsitel Sopeli and Balichi, to the State. GCG strongly disagrees with this position, particularly as GCG has received previous ministerial endorsements, and written confirmation from NAM that GCG had met all of the licence requirements for all five named deposits in the licence area (Kvemo Bolnisi East, Kvemo Bolnisi West, Dambludi, Tsitel Sopeli and Balichi). GCG intends to appeal to the Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development to seek to secure its rights to the remainder of the licence area. The legislation specifies that the Minister has a maximum period of three months to respond.
