SRK Consulting and Ausenco Engineering awarded feasibility study for Romanian mining project

Euro Sun Mining Inc. has awarded the bankable feasibility study contract for its Rovina Valley Gold and Copper project to SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. and Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc.

The Rovina Valley Project covers 27.68 km² in west-central Romania, approximately 300 km northwest of the capital city of Bucharest.

SRK has been selected to provide expertise in geology, mining and financial modeling, and will also oversee the geochemical and geotechnical work, as well as metallurgical test programs.

Ausenco will be responsible for completing the design engineering for the project.

“The award of the feasibility study marks an important milestone as we focus on advancing the development of the Rovina Valley Project,” said G. Scott Moore, president and CEO of Euro Sun Mining in a media release. “Our technical team will work closely with SRK and Ausenco, two experienced international mining engineering firms, to deliver a mine development scenario that will encompass leading environmental standards without the use of Cyanide. We will continue to target a low capital intensity project that outlines the simple open-cut mining and floatation processing at Rovina without the use of wet tailings impoundment.”
