Affinity Gold Corp. Announces First Round of Ore Shipment and Preliminary Sale of Silver-Lead (Ag-Pb) Concentrate Produced From Its Cambalache Project

18.03.2014  |  Marketwired

MAPLE GROVE, MN--(Marketwired - Mar 18, 2014) - Affinity Gold Corp. (OTC Pink: AFYG) (PINKSHEETS: AFYG) ("Affinity" or "the Company") is pleased to announce Compania Minera RyCor, S.A.C. ("Minera RyCor"), 49.9% owned by Affinity Gold Corp., has completed its first round of ore shipment totaling 333 metric tons. The ore was shipped from the Cambalache site to a nearby plant for processing which produced 22.6 tons of silver-lead (Ag-Pb) concentrate.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • On March 13 Cia. Minera RYCOR, SAC made its first Ag-Pb concentrate sale from the February production of the Cambalache mine located in Huancavelica, Peru.

  • The sale was preliminary, with final grades, humidity, pricing values and deductions to be determined. We are expecting additional assays from the concentrate samples late this week which will give us further indication as to the quality of the concentrate.

  • The ore tonnage was 333 T, it was processed at a third party mill, and 22.6 T of concentrate was generated, a 14.7:1 concentration ratio.

  • The final sale on the concentrate will be completed in early April.

"As we continue to increase ore shipments, our next focus will be towards the design and build of our own 300 TPD plant on site which will reduce shipping and processing costs, strengthen quality control and further increase our profit margins on concentrate sales. We continue working to further streamline the production operations as well as sale of concentrate. We recently began the process of talking to additional potential concentrate buyers with interest in developing a more strategic relationship which would possibly result in a long-term off-take agreement" stated Mr. Sandberg, President & CEO.

Mr. Sandberg went on to say, "The process to produce, sell and receive full payment for a concentrate product is typically a 30-day cycle-time from the time the ore shipment arrives at the plant. We will be slightly over that timeline on this round but that's okay considering this is our first run since taking over the project. Overall, we're doing very well and I'm extremely pleased with our progress. Affinity Gold can officially claim it's producing and generating revenue!"
