Wishbone Gold Plc announced that it has applied for a new exploration licence to the South and West of the Company's Wishbone licences in northern Queensland, Australia, which increases the land tenure in this exciting gold region to 208 km2. This new tenement, covering an area of 61.2 km2 is located only 15 km north-west of the Ravenswood Gold Mine, which was recently sold by Resolute Mining in a deal worth AUD 300 million, after Resolute successfully mined and processed over 40 million tonnes of ore in the past 15 years and produced almost two million ounces of gold. The new exploration licence application, covering 19 full blocks has been accepted by the Queensland Government Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy and this new tenement has been assigned a reference number 10007613 and has been designated as EPMA "Wishbone 6". The Company's exploration consultants in Australia, Terra Search Pty Ltd, advise that there are mineral occurrences and historic gold mining districts in the south at the Kirk Goldfield and extending into the EPMA as the Himalaya North lode system and at the north at the Grass Hut Goldfield with one of the major mines the City of Melbourne occurring within the EPMA.
