After successful exploration, including a number high grade individual drill results at the Lewis South deposit, Kin completed Mineral Resource estimates based around near surface, oxide and transitional material across a number of deposits. Kin completed a Feasibility Study on project development in October 2017 and commenced construction activities in early 2018.

Following a number of Board and Management changes in early 2018 the Company confirmed a material increase in the projected capital costs and operating costs of the proposed project and the CGP development was suspended. Having placed the development on care and maintenance, Kin completed a full review of the Mineral Resources, Ore Reserves, Capital cost and Operating cost estimates which resulted in an updated Ore Reserve and PFS announced on 30 August 2019.

Kin is now focussed on improving and expanding the Mineral Resources with additional exploration prior to restarting the CGP development.
