The Company commenced construction of the San Ramon Gold Mine and Mill in August 2015 after completing a positive feasibility study in October 2014, followed by completion of permitting in March 2015 and project financing in August 2015. Construction and commissioning of the mill was completed in Q4 2016, however, development of the underground mine was not complete. Five kilometres of underground development and 16,000 metres of underground infill drilling were completed during 2017. Development and infill drilling facilitated stope mining to recommence in Q4 2017 and the mill to restart on January 2, 2018. Mining rates increased quarter over quarter since Q4 2017, until the mine contractor scaled back operations in June 2018 due to financial constraints. |
