SYDNEY (Yosefardi) – Sumatra Copper & Gold reported the ongoing phase 3 resource in-fill and extensional drilling program at its flagship Tembang Gold-Silver project in Sumatra, Indonesia, is progressing well with excellent results received to date across key deposits.

To date a total of 5,532 metres is drilled in 64 holes at Asmar, Berenai, Siamang, Tembang-Anang and Belinau. The drilling program has been planned and executed in consultation with Cube Consulting Pty Limited to maximise conversion of mineral resources to ore reserves.
