State-owned Shalateen Mining Company plans to launch an international gold and minerals exploration auction for at least five areas in the Eastern Desert in the coming weeks, Bloomberg Asharq<\/a> reported Monday, citing sources it says are in the know.<\/p>\n

The company has already sent the tender proposal to the Oil Ministry for final approvals on the areas offered and the date of the tender, one of the sources said.<\/p>\n

Bidders will be hoping for another Iqat:<\/strong> Among the areas that could be tendered is part of the Iqat region, home to a deposit being developed by<\/a> the Egyptian Mineral Resources Authority and Shalateen that could hold more than 1 mn oz of gold<\/a>. Oil Minister Tarek El Molla said in April<\/a> that the companies could soon begin initial production at the mine, in which authorities say more than USD 1 bn could be invested over the next 10 years.<\/p>\n

The government recently <\/strong>awarded<\/strong> eight gold and mineral exploration licenses in the Eastern Desert<\/strong> to four companies in its latest bid round. Canadian miner Lotus Gold<\/a> won three blocks, the Sawiris-backed Akh Gold<\/a> and Marine Logistics both got two blocks, and Ankh Resources<\/a> received one block, EMRA said<\/a> last month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
