Aspiring gold producer Calidus Resources will begin early construction works at its flagship Pilbara project using the proceeds raised from a $25 million share placement.
Emerging ASX-listed gold player Calidus Resources has received a significant cash injection towards the accelerated development of its flagship Warrawoona project 20km south-east of Marble Bar in WA's East Pilbara region. The Perth-based company has raised $25 million before costs from a heavily oversubscribed share placement to sophisticated and professional investors of 49 million shares at 51 cents each.
Emerging ASX-listed gold player Calidus Resources is set to kick off an initial round of regional drilling at its recently acquired Otways gold-copper project in the Pilbara, in tandem with continued drilling to beef up a maiden ore reserve estimate at its developing Warrawoona gold asset, about 50km away also in the Pilbara.
With the gold price piercing the US$1,800 per ounce mark and threatening to test the A$2,600/oz level, emerging gold developer, Calidus Resources, is moving quickly to get its ducks in a row in order to meet an accelerated development schedule at its planned $116 million Warrawoona gold project in WA's East Pilbara district.
Calidus Resources says it will begin construction for its Pilbara gold project in six months, while Kin Mining and Moho Resources have moved ahead with drill programs for other projects in Western Australia.
Calidus Resources' updated PFS for its Warrawoona gold project in the Pilbara shows another $20m a year falling to the bottom line compared to previous estimates. The latest set of numbers which have been tabled on the back of a simplified mine plan will no doubt be helpful for Calidus who is now getting dangerously close to production at Warrawoona.
With its market cap now sitting comfortably over $100m, the hurdles are starting to drop now as Calidus Resources races towards gold production in the Pilbara. Arguably the most difficult hurdle to navigate on the pathway to production is EPA approval and Calidus now has this important one behind it at the Warrawoona gold project after getting the nod from the EPA.
Calidus Resources is one step closer to commencing its Warrawoona gold project, with the EPA today recommending conditional approval for the prospective Pilbara mine.
Calidus Resources has struck upon a bold growth strategy as it steams towards the development of its rapidly advancing Warrawoona gold project in the Pilbara. Drilling has kicked off at its flagship Klondyke deposit, targeting the rich inventory of gold speculated to sit below the existing resource.The company is scrubbing up a pipeline of resources to extend the life of the developing mine.
Calidus Resources has entered into a Heads of Agreement to earn up to 70 per cent of the prospective looking Otways Project, located just 50km from its flagship Warrawoona gold project in the Pilbara. The initial part of the deal with ASX-listed Rugby Mining Limited, will see Calidus spend $200K on the Otways project and put 1,200m of RC drilling into it over 12 months.
Calidus Resources is pulling out all stops to get its Warrawoona gold project into production in the Pilbara after it signed a deal to co-fund an airport upgrade at Marble Bar this week in partnership with the Shire of East Pilbara. The upgrade will enable Calidus to seamlessly deliver its workforce in and out of Warrawoona when it gets going.
Calidus Resources said it remains on track to deliver a definitive feasibility study for its 1.25Moz Warrawoona gold project near Marble Bar in the Pilbara during the December quarter of this year. The company said it is targeting the commencement of development in the first half of 2021 after its pre-feasibility study demonstrated a robust project based on 100,000oz per annum of gold production.
ASX-listed Calidus Resources said the near-term development strategy for its 1.25Moz Warrawoona gold project in the Pilbara has received a shot in the arm after the project was granted a streamlined State and Federal environmental approval process. The WA office of the EPA has advised Calidus that it will assess the project as an “Accredited Assessment”. Calidus is targeting 100,000 ounces of gold per year at Warrawoona.
Calidus Resources has jumped on the opportunity to pick up an accommodation village, signalling that it is getting serious about developing its Warrawoona gold project. The accommodation modules will be stored in Marble Bar until all internal and external development approvals are in place. The company has applied for an early works permit to fast track deployment of the camp ahead of receiving final approvals.
As Calidus Resources rolls on towards the end of a successful field season at its Warrawoona gold project in the East Pilbara of WA, a suite of exciting assays have come in that may provide a boost to its 1.25 million ounce resource. Drilling up to 200m below the base of the proposed open cut mine hit 1m @ 55.2g/t gold and 1.11m @ 31.2g/t gold – giving the company a hint that an underground operation just might fly.
A robust RC drilling program has seen Calidus Resources continue its rapid transition from explorer to producer as it underpins the open pit resource upgrade for its million-plus ounce Warrawoona gold project in WA's East Pilbara.

The company is also continuing to de-risk the million ounce-plus ore resource, with recent work defining near-surface gold mineralisation in Klondyke's eastern section.
Calidus Resources has generated shallow, high-grade gold intercepts outside the existing resources in drilling completed at its emerging Warrawoona project, near Marble Bar, WA. The results are adjacent to the flagship Klondyke deposit and included 12 metres grading 2.68 grams per tonne gold from only 32m down-hole and 4m @ 4.3g/t gold from 44m, in areas that were previously anticipated to be barren of mineralisation.
Calidus Resources has kicked off a major drilling campaign at its Warrawoona gold project located near Marble Bar in WA's eastern Pilbara region, which is aimed at improving confidence in the existing mineral resources and expanding the mine-life beyond the initial six years. The work will be centred around the Klondyke open pit and underground resources, but will also include regional greenfields exploration at Klondyke West.
Calidus Resources has intersected high-grade gold with a bonanza hit of 1m @ 107.2g/t gold from 36m down-hole in a broader intersection of 13m @ 11.1g/t gold from 30m, during infill drilling at the Klondyke-St George shear-hosted deposits within its Warrawoona project, near Marble Bar, WA.

The company also completed its 70% earn-in on a joint venture agreement with Novo Resources over certain Warrawoona tenements, by spending $2m spend over three years to obtain the stake holding.
Calidus Resources has generated encouraging infill drilling results that confirm the grade continuity of its Klondyke ore system at the Warrawoona gold project in the Pilbara region of WA ahead of next month's PFS. The company has also completed a surface trench sampling program over the Klondyke resource to establish the grade and thickness of gold mineralisation and support future mining operations.
Calidus Resources has generated high-grade gold assays from a regional aircore drilling campaign over conceptual exploratory targets on prospective shear zones at its Warrawoona gold project near Marble Bar, WA. Best results included 12m @ 2.37g/t gold from 52m down-hole and 4m @ 8.87g/t gold from 48m down-hole on the Klondyke-St George shear system, 5km west of the main Klondyke gold deposit.
Calidus Resources' recent IP survey has identified a strong chargeability anomaly similar to and located immediately to the south of the 1.15 million ounce Klondyke deposit at its Warrawoona gold project in the eastern Pilbara, WA. The company said the new parallel shear highlights the potential for further growth at the project and will be drill tested in the second half of this year.
