Syama North currently contains more than 1 million ounces grading 2.85 grams per tonne.

Open cut sulphide gold mining would take some of the pressure off the big underground mine to meet the processing capacity of the key sulphide processing circuit.

Meanwhile, Resolute managing director Terry Holohan told a conference call the company was "feeling comfortable at this stage" with the company's guidance for the full year of 345,000oz at all-in sustaining costs of $1425/oz.
