Contract miner MMS acquires East Sampson gold project – International Mining

Mineral Mining Services (MMS) has announced a significant expansion of its gold mining operations with the acquisition of the East Sampson gold project, in Western Australia, from Moho Resources.

This strategic move strengthens MMS’ position in the gold sector and reinforces the company’s commitment to delivering exceptional results for its stakeholders, the company says.

“This is a major step forward for MMS,” new MMS CEO, Rob Ryan, says. “East Sampson aligns perfectly with our focus on high-potential open-cut gold projects with near term production potential. We’re bringing our proven expertise and track record of success to unlock the full value of this asset.”

The East Sampson gold project boasts a high-grade JORC mineral resource of 264,000 t at 2.5g/t for 21,000 oz with substantial exploration upside. “MMS is confident in our ability to optimise production and maximise returns, leveraging our operational excellence and technical capabilities,” the company says.

This acquisition comes on the heels of MMS’ recent successes at the Kal East gold project, where the company consistently exceeded expectations in terms of production and efficiency. In September, just two months after breaking ground, MMS, in partnership with Black Cat Syndicate, celebrated the first gold pour from the Myhree pit at the Kal East project.
