commence mining high-grade underground ore and transport it to the Sigma Mill. The Ormaque deposit, part of the Lamaque Complex, is expected to enhance production flexibility and contribute to the company's long-term growth strategy.
Why It's Important?
The authorization for the Ormaque deposit is a significant milestone for Eldorado Gold, as it enables the company to leverage existing infrastructure and increase its production capacity.
