Prospecting activities have started at Piciorul Zimbrului and Magura Neagra, the two assets in Romania close to Vast Resources PLC's (LON:VAST) Manaila polymetallic mine.
The purpose of the activities is to increase the resources near Manaila and expand Vast's Romanian mineralised footprint through the acquisition of brownfield mining operations and known discoveries.
Further investment in prospecting and development activities will be made in the second and third quarters of 2018, by which time Vast expects to have finance agreements secured for the advancement of the prospecting licences.
