Kingston Resources Limited (ASX: KSN) is a mineral exploration company. The Company owns a portfolio of significant gold and copper projects in the Gawler Craton of South Australia.
The company, today on 5th April 2019, has updated regarding the status of its interest in the Misima Gold Project. Following the August 2018 completion of its earn-in to 70% of the project, Kingston has funded 100% of the exploration activity at Misima. Under the terms of the JV agreement, this will see Kingstonâs interest in the project increase further.
Based on its current estimate of expenditure to 31 March 2019, Kingston estimates its interest in the Misima Gold Project will now lift to approximately 75%.
Kingston Managing Director, Mr Andrew Corbett said that the management is elated to be continuing to increase its interest in the project as the company advances its exploration at Misima. He further emphasised that the company wishes to thank their JV partner, Pan Pacific Copper, for their ongoing support of Kingston and interest in the project. The management looks forward to working with them as the project advances towards potential development.
