Gold deposits at the Podgolechnoye mine in Yakutia are more impressive than earlier understood.

The mine is run by Russian holding Seligdar and is believed to have a further eight years of production capacity.
Seligdar is a Siberian operation formed in 2008 after a merger of assets by Russian Funds Investment Group and Seligdar Prospectors Artel.
Gold production is seen as hitting around 700 kilograms annually.
