Aton discovers two new mining prospects at its Abu Marawat concession

Canadian mining firm Aton Resources has discovered two new gold mine prospects at Safaga South and Wasif in the company’s Abu Marawat concession in the eastern desert, according to a statement out last week. Preliminary sampling has returned positive results after the company identified “ancient mining settlements” at both prospects. Aton Sandstorm Gold signed last month a USD 2.1 mn financing package to fund more exploration and development at the concession.
