Bannerman Releases June 2012 Quarterly Activities Report
(firmenpresse) - PERTH, AUSTRALIA -- (Marketwire) -- 07/31/12 -- Bannerman Resources Limited (ASX: BMN)(TSX: BAN)(NAMIBIAN: BMN) ("Bannerman") is pleased to announce highlights from its June 2012 Quarterly Activities Report released today. The full report is available on Bannerman's website at and on SEDAR ().
HIGHLIGHTS
Activities for the second half of 2012 for the Etango Project will focus on completion of the Epangelo transaction, pursuit of the Etango Project mining licence, advancement of discussions with potential development and financing partners, and prudent cash management.
Bannerman's CEO, Len Jubber, said: "Completion of the Etango Project DFS and subsequent receipt of formal environmental approval represent significant milestones and further de-risk the Etango Project. In addition, drilling carried out over the last two quarters confirms that the Etango deposit is open down dip and at depth, and therefore offers significant potential for mine life extensions beyond the current reserve life of 16 years. Etango is now one of the very few large scale and low technical risk projects backed by a DFS and with significant resource upside."
With confirmation during the quarter of China's extensive nuclear reactor development program, commencement of reactor restarts in Japan and further reports of production disruptions, Bannerman is well positioned to offer its investors substantial exposure to positive uranium fundamentals.
