Base metals miner Panoramic Resources on Tuesday said that first nickel ore from the Savannah North operation, in Western Australia, is expected by November this year, just 16 months after a decision to re-open the mine was taken.
MD Peter Harold told delegates at the Paydirt Nickel conference, in Perth, that first ore would come from development drives being constructed to access the Savannah North ore body which is now only 70 m from the Savannah ore body.
