Lihir Gold (TSE:LGG) (Nasdaq:LIHR) announced it has completed the sale of its Ballarat mine to Castlemaine Goldfields Ltd.
In March Lihir let it be known they were going to close the mine and reached a deal with Castlemaine to sell them the mine for $4.5 million in cash and another 2.5 percent royalty interest in the mine up to $50 million in future production.
Castlemaine has stated in the past they will explore the mine for a nine month period once they take possession. If there is progress, they will explore another nine months before beginning production.
