Executive Comments
Managing Director Paul L’Herpiniere stated, “Following an exceptional year of exploration at Rogozna in 2024, which resulted in a ~2Moz AuEq increase in our resource base to 7.4Moz AuEq, we are excited to increase our efforts to grow and progress the Project during 2025. We will have multiple key catalysts throughout the year and once again expect to be one of the most active explorers in the region and on the ASX, with regular news-flow to continue throughout the course of 2025. As part of our preparations for the largest ever exploration program at Rogozna, we have recently employed a further ten technical and support staff in Serbia and I would like to personally welcome the new members of our team and look forward to seeing their contribution to the growth and progression of Rogozna as we aim to further demonstrate its exceptional potential in 2025 and beyond.”
