VIENTIANE (Vientiane Times/Asia News Network): A newly discovered underground gold mine that has just begun operations will significantly bolster mineral production by Lane Xang Minerals Limited (LXML) and bring economic and social benefits to the country.
With resources of 9.5 million tonnes and ore production projected to increase from 400,000 tonnes in 2023 to 1.2 million tonnes per annum thereafter, the “Discovery Deeps Underground Mine” is expected to extend Sepon’s mine life by at least seven years to 2030, LXML, a leading mineral producer in Laos, said in a statement.
