“In Q1 2016, we again saw the upside potential of Platosa’s exceptionally high-grade massive sulphide mantos and began to see further material benefits from our long-term dewatering efforts,” stated Brendan Cahill, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In late February, we accessed the Rodilla Manto, approximately seven months ahead of schedule as we encountered mineralization outside of the Platosa resource block model and dry mining conditions facilitated rapid development. A significant amount of this ‘bonus’ mineralization was ultra high grade, with approximately 1,600 tonnes of ore produced from Rodilla during March grading over 1,000 g/t Ag, 10% Pb and 10% Zn. This ore was blended with lower grade and low-cost stockpiles to improve mill recoveries and concentrate payability. We are currently developing into the next level of the Rodilla Manto and expect the continuing optimization program at Platosa to deliver further operational improvements as the year progresses.”
