LionGold's gold reserves less than thought
But new technical report sees 96% hike in free cash
A NEW technical report on LionGold's mine in Bolivia has lowered its estimate of the reserves it holds there, but a higher gold price estimate will see free cash generated from the mine increase 96 per cent to US$269 million.
