PRESS RELEASE, 10 December 2012
During November 2012, the gold production at the Laiva mine amounted to 120
kilos. The availability of the concentrating plant was 92 per cent.
The main reason for the increased production was particularly the improved
availability. Throughput in the grinding circuit, while in operation, was
between 70 and 80 per cent of the designed capacity. The gold recovery was 83
per cent during the month while the gold content in the ore processed amounted
to 1.2 grams per tonne.
The total gold production January through November 2012 amounted to 853 kilos.
According to plan, a longer operational stop of at least three days will be
performed during December.
