Moss gold production increased

Northern Vertex Mining announces gold and silver production totaling 3,431 gold equivalent ounces (3,091 ozs gold and 25,529 ozs silver) during the month of August at the Moss Gold Mine, located in Northwest Arizona.

Kenneth Berry, President and CEO, states: “We are pleased to report another production record at the Moss Mine and are delighted to be setting records in this higher gold and silver price environment.

 

Increased production during the last six months is attributable to improved operational controls, modifications to the Merrill Crowe facility and heap-leach pad solution management.  Our operations team has delivered on our promises and I look forward to updating our shareholders and stakeholders in due course as we pursue further mine optimization opportunities. Future production and financial results will be disclosed on a quarterly basis moving forward.”

 

A reverse circulation (RC) in-fill drill program is underway on permitted drill sites on the Western Extension resource area, which is within the current pit of the Moss Mine to expand and confirm the current resource. This program is expected to consist of 29 holes totaling approximately 4,300 meters.  The program is intended to run until November at which time assays will be completed and results will be released to the market.
