About Orsu Metals

Orsu owns 90 percent of the Sergeevskoe gold exploration project in Russia’s Transbaikalian Region. The property is leased from the Russian Government until 2031 when it can be extended for an additional 10 years when the mine starts producing. The Sergeevskoe license area is comprised of 7.6 square kilometers and has excellent access to the infrastructure needed to develop the property. The licensed area is in proximity to the Trans-Siberian railway and the Chita-Khabarovsk motorway. The Russian government has also installed various cell towers along the highway and access to water and power is not an issue.

The Sergeevskoe property sits between SUN Gold Ltd.’s Klyuchevskoe past producing gold mine and the producing Aleksandrovskoe gold mine owned by Zapadnaya Gold Mining Limited. The two mines have reported resources over 5.5 million ounces and 2.2 million ounces gold, respectively.
