AGM Statement
ECR MINERALS plc
(“ECR Minerals”, “ECR” or the “Company”)
Result of AGM
At the AGM held earlier today all resolutions were duly approved.
In addition, at the meeting the Company provided an update on the delivery of
the second drill rig which the Company had confirmed it had purchased in the
announcement on the 27(th) July 2021. The Directors confirmed there were
delays in delivery from China due to high shipping costs and availability, but
the Directors expect to have it on site and in use by the end of the summer.
Adam Jones, leading Geologist for ECR’s Victorian projects stated “The use
of the second multi-purpose drill rig will be crucial for follow up drilling
at projects such as Creswick. We can quickly switch between RC drilling (for
bulk-samples and grade) and diamond core (for confirmation of structures) as
needed.”
