Minera Alamos Inc.: Metallurgical Tests Demonstrating Gold Recoveries in Excess of 90% Enhance the Economic Potential at La Fortuna

“Compared to typical gold heap leach recoveries, these new results represent an approximate 50% increase in potential gold production from the La Fortuna gold resource. In addition, the ability to pre-concentrate the gold prior to leaching allows for further reductions in the scope and capital required for downstream processing equipment,” said Darren Koningen, President of Minera Alamos. “These favorable results allow us to consider alternative processing methods other than heap leaching, possibly increasing the economic potential of the project significantly”.
