As at the end of March, 75% of expansion capital has been spent or committed and, importantly, the transformation of K92 into a Tier 1 Mid-Tier producer is nearly upon us, with commissioning of the new 1.2 million tonnes per annum Stage 3 Process Plant set to commence in the second half of this quarter.”
K92 Mining last traded at $11.19 on the TSX.
