*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
The Asanko project was derived from the combination of two standalone (Obotan & Esaase) projects. The Obotan deposit will be developed as Phase 1, while the Esaase deposit will be developed as Phase 2. Both deposits will be mined by open-pit methods. Ore from Esaase will be transported 27km by overland conveyor to a carbon in leach plant at Obotan. Commercial production (Phase 1) was declared in April 2016 and board approval for Phase 2 expansion (5Mt/a expansion) was announced in November. In 2018, 223koz of gold was produced as the mill ramped up to full production. For 2020, full year gold production is estimated at ~235koz.
