“I am impressed by the quality of people, resources and record of success in the mining business that Harlequin brings to this project,” Asante President and CEO Douglas MacQuarrie said. “Asante looks forward to working with Harlequin and all of our project partners, toward a safe and successful project execution.”

Works have already commenced on site. Design and planning initiatives for other aspects of the Bibiani Mine Development Project continue to advance, according to MacQuarrie.
