Nyota Minerals announced that the Definitive Feasibility Study for its Tulu Kapi project in Ethiopia is progressing well and is still expected to be completed in next half of the year.

Nyota has submitted some technical elements of the ongoing DFS to the Ministry of Mines to support its application for a mining license according to the report.

The company said that the ongoing infill drilling program planned to convert a further 260 thousand ounces of inferred resources to the indicated category is now 90% complete.

Nyota Minerals, the dual listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange (AIM:NYO.L) and the Australian Stock Exchange gold exploration and development company, has reported the discovery of a new gold anomaly at the Boka-West target in the company's fully Northern Block exploration license areas in Western Ethiopia.

The company reported that, the gold-in-soil anomaly extended for 2.0KM in length and was up to 500 metres (m) wide. The company said that it was also coincidental with anomalies for copper (Cu), zinc (Zn) and bismuth (Bi).

Nyota Minerals, an East African focused gold miner, announced yesterday it has discovered three new gold reserves. These discoveries were made within the 3200 km2 of the Northern exploration area of the firm in Western Ethiopia.

Nyota regards these sites as ‘drill ready,’ and a multi-purpose drill rig has been allocated to them.

Nyota Minerals has confirmed a plan to sell 75 percent of its Tulu Kapi gold mine project in Ethiopia, Proactive Investors UK reported.

In return Nyota Minerals will receive £1 million of cash and £3.5 million in shares, and it will retain a 25 percent interest in the project.

Nyota Minerals, engaged in gold exploration in Ethiopia, announced that it had received 1.3 million Pounds from the International Finance Corporation.

The company is expecting to use the investment from the IFC to support its Tulu Kapi project according to its announcement last month.

The company which is focused on gold exploration in Africa and development has also received consideration for 21.7 million new ordinary shares at 6p each.
