Toronto-based Marathon Gold has appointed Ausenco Engineering Canada as the lead consultant for the prefeasibility study at the Valentine gold project in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Marathon president and CEO Matt Manson says Ausenco’s Canadian team has the most recent direct experience in the development of a large openpit gold project in the Maritimes, as the engineering, procurement and construction contractor at the Moose River gold mine developed by Atlantic Gold (now St Barbara).
