Bannerman Resources reports the board’s approval to proceed with a definitive feasibility study following positive results from the preliminary feasibility study  on its Etango project, Namibia, southwestern Africa.

The Etango Project is a large and relatively shallow uranium project in one of the world’s premier uranium mining locations. The PFS has demonstrated two development options for the Etango Project comprising a bulk open pit mining operation with processing undertaken either by agitated tank leaching of a high-grade flotation concentrate or by heap leaching methods. The very favourable flotation testwork results achieved to date have elevated flotation concentrate leaching to the preferred processing option, with further confirmatory laboratory and pilot plant testwork scheduled to be completed in the March 2010 quarter.
