Thor has commissioned a review of the resource estimate for Molyhil to include this, however until that work is complete, we can ascribe no additional value for any potential copper at this time.\"\n\"Since acquiring the Bonya properties, ongoing studies on the combined Molyhil-Bonya project have identified the copper potential of Bonya and its potential suitability for processing at Molyhil (news releases 26 November2018 and 7 May 2019). This has led to the reappraisal of the economic potential for copper at Molyhil.\"\n \nAn historic Molyhil Mineral Resource Estimate with copper included is available on the ASX website, and can be viewed, on page 33 of 124, via the following link:\n &nb...
