Flinders Mines Limited (ASX: FMS) (Flinders or Company) advises that due to regional fires in close proximity to active drilling work, the decision has been taken to evacuate the PIOP camp and suspend all on site activities. This evacuation was completed on Saturday 11 November 2017 and all personnel have been safely demobilised from site. Once the fires have passed through, an evaluation of the site will be conducted and a decision will be made whether to cease onsite activities for the year or remobilise the drill crews for completion of the remaining maturation site works. The site work previously planned for the remainder of the calendar year includes completion of the geotechnical drilling and the hydrogeological drilling.
