BATHURST COMPLETES THE PURCHASE OF THE TENAS PROJECT IN BRITISH COLUMBIA

Bathurst Resources Limited (ASX:BRL) (Bathurst) is pleased to announce it has completed the purchase of the Tenas Coking Coal Project assets (Tenas Project) from Telkwa Coal Limited, a subsidiary of Allegiance Coal Limited (in liquidation) (controllers appointed).

The key attractions of the project
- Low mining strip ratio;
- Long life project;
- Conventional open-cut mining methods with standard coal processing;
- Tier 1 Mining jurisdiction;
- Access to water, power, workforce and services;
- Unique close access to existing rail and port infrastructure;
- Significant port capacity available and
- Alignment to existing long-term ‘direct customer relationships’.

The strategic investment
The purchase of the Tenas project is consistent with Bathurst’s strategy of increasing exposure to steelmaking coal, while also increasing Bathurst’s footprint in a Tier 1 mining jurisdiction.

The purchase means Bathurst now holds an interest in two long life Canadian steelmaking coal projects with the ability to produce metallurgical in excess of 15 years and will enable an expected total production of 3.8 million tonnes of metallurgical coal across the New Zealand and Canadian assets.
