b) Gosowong (82.5%)
Gosowong Extended (Kencana Shoot)
Kencana is a body of epithermal gold mineralisation located one kilometre south of the Gosowong pit. The first audited Mineral Resource estimate for the prospect was released in February 2004.
A combined Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 0.69 million tonnes at 41 grams per tonne of gold for 0.92 million ounces has been estimated for Newcrest’s share of the north-western, more closely drilled part of the deposit.
The mineralisation remains open to the south-east and at depth. Drilling is currently focussed on investigating the south-eastern extension of the mineralisation and on defining its lower and upper boundaries. Significant high-grade intersections have been recorded 200 metres south-east of the resource envelope.
Toguraci
An updated resource was estimated for Toguraci. This resource includes gold mineralisation in the Kayu Manis and Damar structures.
