Hummingbird Resources

Hummingbird Resources plc is a mineral exploration company incorporated in England and Wales and headquartered in London. Founded in late 2005, Hummingbird Resources is a West African gold explorer and developer (AIM:HUM), which listed on AIM in December 2010 with a maiden N143-101 compliant Resource of 0.4Moz gold resource in Liberia. Since IPO, the Company has significantly grown its initial resource to 4.2Moz at its Dugbe Gold Project in Liberia, West Africa. In July 2014 the Company acquired all of Gold Fields' gold assets in Mali, including the 2.2Moz Yanfolila Project which is currently under construction and due to produce 130,000oz gold in its first year of operations. Hummingbird is now a multi-project, near-term producer with a 6.4Moz of gold and c4,000 km2 of exploration ground. Hummingbird's strategy has always been to create a gold company that has a portfolio of assets encompassing exploration, development and production and the purchase of the Yanfolila Project marks a significant step towards fulfilling that ambition. Gold Fields' decision to accept Hummingbird shares as consideration for the acquisition underlines the potential of the Yanfolila Project, its portfolio in Liberia and their confidence in Hummingbird's ability to bring projects into production.
