ABSTRACT:Petropavlovsk PLC ("Petropavlovsk" or the "Company" or, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") is pleased to provide a further update on the results of exploration work completed during 2016 and 2017.Dr Pavel Maslovskiy, Chief Executive, comments:"Petropavlovsk was built on exploration success. Since 2002, we have discovered 31.4Moz of JORC Resources through exploration activities. This has allowed us to produce an impressive 6.3Moz of gold and created a solid base for future sustainable production growth. Using our regional knowledge and technical expertise, our team continues to prove our ability to unlock value through the drill bit. We have been concentrating our exploration efforts on the discovery and development of mineral resources in the vicinity of our main producing assets, and on upgrading resources to ore reserves. We see new discoveries at our existing mines as the optimal way to ensure sustainability, growth and long term value. I am delighted to report a strong set of exploration results, which are encouraging at all levels including target generation, and to update you on our progress during 2017"The Pioneer 1,375km2 area has various exploration opportunities for both non-refractory and refractory resources, including high grade mineralisation. In 2016, the Group successfully executed a cost effective exploration programme, focused mainly on near mine resource expansion and underground resource to reserve conversion at NE Bakhmut. There has been limited deep drilling from the surface at Bakhmut, Promezhutochnaya and Andreevskaya, and we have been successful in identifying high grade mineralisation below all three reserve pits.
