Yukon-Nevada Gold Corp. (TSX:YNG) announced an update to progress at the Nevada-based Jerritt Canyon mine.

As quoted in the press release:

Environmental compliance was achieved by the issuance of a Consent Decree in the fall of 2009 allowing the Company to restart its milling operation. Since re-starting the plant in October 2009 the roasters have successfully been subject to independent engineer stack testing for emission compliance for mercury, particulates, sulfur dioxide and other emissions.

Yukon-Nevada’s President and CEO, Robert Baldock said:

There is every reason for the facility to operate at similar production levels in the future and that is certainly management’s goal.
