Explorer Hill End Gold is finally changing its name to reflect its focus on the burgeoning high purity alumina (HPA) sector.

Hill End is now Pure Alumina – the name of the company Hill End bought in July 2017. This deal  included its now-flagship Yendon HPA project.

Pure Alumina is already knee deep in a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) on the 8000 tonnes per annum Yendon HPA project.

Miners undertake up to four different types of studies to determine whether or not a resource can be mined economically. These are scoping, preliminary feasibility (PFS), definitive feasibility (DFS) and bankable feasibility (BFS).

The sale of the gold assets is well underway as they’ve received firm offers, the company told investors.
