Gold & Silver Deccan Gold finds deposits in Haveri Our Bureau
Bangalore , May 2 DECCAN Gold Mines has struck another gold bearing deposit in Haveri zone, barely weeks after its success at the Dharwar Shimoga belt. The 470 x 27 metre zone at Ganajur near Haveri can potentially yield two tonnes of gold, the company MD, Mr Sandeep Lakhwara, and the Chief Geologist, Dr V.N. Vasudev, announced at a news conference. According to Mr Lakhwara, this is the outcome of reconnoitory drilling taken up in Haveri and Dharwad districts.
