Halifax,
Nova Scotia -- October 9, 2019 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire
-- GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) (OTCQX: GLGDF) ("GoGold",
"the Company") is pleased to
report record
production for the quarter ending September 30, 2019 of 580,711
silver equivalent ounces, consisting of 326,625 silver ounces and
2,921 gold ounces, representing an increase of
29% from the previous quarter and previous record
of 451,011 silver
equivalent ounces.
Production for
the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019 was 1,846,835 silver
equivalent ounces, consisting of
1,059,438 silver
ounces and 9,149 gold ounces. This represents an annual
record and is an increase over the prior year record of 42%, or
547,421 silver equivalent ounces.
"This marks the third
consecutive quarter where we've set a
production record, with a substantial
increase this
quarter of 130,000 ounces from the past
quarter,
in what has typically been our weakest quarter of the year due to
the rainy season," said Brad Langille, President
and CEO. "This has been by far our
strongest year at Parral, with production of 1.85
million ounces, over
500,000 ounces
higher than last year. With Parral running at these
rates, the exceptional results that we're seeing at our
Los Ricos
project, and the strengthening of the gold and silver markets, it's
an exciting time for us as we
work to
build
value
for our
shareholders."
SART
Update
Construction on
the SART continues to be on schedule, with the foundation
and significant
concrete work completed, and many key
components being installed. Construction is
scheduled to be completed prior to the end of
2019. The SART plant is expected to
bring important economic and technical benefits to the Parral
facility. The main economic drivers are the recovery of a
high-grade saleable copper sulfide product and the re-generation of
cyanide, which is the largest single operating cost at Parral, and
improve the leaching efficiency of the heap.
