Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV:BGM) announced that its QR mill facility has started operating. It will process ore mined last year from the company’s British Columbia-based QR mine.
As quoted in the press release:
The Company anticipates pouring its first doré bar within the next few weeks as ore crushing began the morning of March 10th, 2014. The mill will operate 24 hours per day until the QR ore is processed at which point in time the Company expects to start processing ore from its Bonanza Ledge Mine. Weather conditions have been favourable which allows the Company to put more tonnes through the crushing circuit and fine ore bin.
The QR Mine operates under Permit M-198. There is currently in excess of 15,000 tonnes of ore extracted from the QR Mine in the mill stockpile. In June 2012 Permit M-198 was amended to also allow the Company to process Bonanza Ledge ore at the QR Mill.
