Notes to Editors
 
The Tapajos region of northern Brazil encompasses an area of approximately 100,000 km², primarily situated in south-west Para State.  It has a significant history of alluvial gold production with estimated gold production of some 30 million ounces having being recovered, primarily from artisanal workings.
 
Present in the Tapajos since 1999, Serabi has established the only 'hard rock' mine in the region to date at its Palito gold mine, which produced 39,197 ounces of gold equivalent in 2006 and achieved commercial production at Palito in October 2006
 
Serabi has a significant exploration programme focused on the Tapajos region, owns and operates four surface drilling rigs and has its own assay laboratory.
