Jones adds clout to project

摘要

Gindalbie Metals Ltd looks to divest the mothballed Minjar gold mine so it can focus on developing its 100 percent-owned Blue Hills iron ore play in Western Australia, where bankable feasibility studies are set to begin next March. The company also said the recent appointment of Portman's former chairman George Jones (which also saw a flurry in the company share price) as non-executive director would help the junior emerge as a "new independent iron ore producer". Jones--who resigned from his Portman role in April --said in mid-September that the quality of Gindalbie's assets and management's enthusiasm had "enticed" him back to listed public company life earlier than he had planned.
