Goldgroup Mining President and CEO, Keith Piggott said:
“The closing of this transaction represents one of Goldgroup’s most significant milestones to date. The Caballo Blanco gold project is Goldgroup’s flagship project and an asset that has the potential to contribute an additional 100,000 ounces of low cost annual gold production to Goldgroup’s growth profile, with initial production scheduled for Q4 2012. The project also has tremendous upside exploration potential which, if realized, could allow production to be expanded from this initial rate. Our Caballo Blanco team has built strong relationships with local stakeholders, including the Government of Veracruz and many local partners. We collectively look forward to fast-tracking the development of the Caballo Blanco gold project.”
