Robex continues to reduce cash costs and maintenance costs at the Nampala mine in Mali. After nine months of commercial production, the mine is already among the best in terms of low-cost gold production. Highly qualified employees, well-established management procedures and indicators, and exemplary rigorous work enable the company to improve the profitability of the Nampala mine day after day.

This makes it possible to present a significantly reduced liability as at September 30, 2017 compared to June 30 (decrease of more than $ 5 million). Robex is proud of their progress and intends to continue on this path.

The quantity of ore processed daily during October and November 2017 is constantly increasing

The Nampala mine processed 159,000 tonnes of ore during the month of October for an average of 5,130 tonnes per day. In November, some daily productions peaked at nearly 7,000 tonnes per day. These results are extremely promising and suggest that the last quarter of 2017 may be even more promising.
