Michael Griffiths, Currie's President and CEO, commented; "The revised terms will give all parties greater flexibility into the future and we look forward to fruitful exploration in the near term."
Mr Griffiths further commented: "The Rossland Gold Project covers a large proportion of the Rossland Mining Camp excluding the former Le Roi, War Eagle and Centre Star gold mines that produced more than 2.7 million ounces of gold between 1894 and 1941. We identify the project as an advanced brownfields opportunity with little co-ordinated modern exploration due to previous fragmented claim ownership and the recent work by Currie has identified significant geophysical anomalies along strike from the historic gold mines as well as other underexplored vein gold targets."
