Andes Gold Corporation announced that it has added a water flotation plant to the Zaruma mill. The water flotation plant will increase the capacity of the Zaruma mill by 20 tons per day to 170 tons per day. The company projects that at capacity the mill will have an average head grade of 1.0 oz of gold per ton while processing 170 tons of ore per day. With the increase in capacity, the company will increase the amount of ore it is processing from other mines that do not have milling capacity. Testing of ore from other mines show that the grades will range from 0.6 oz per ton to 1.45 ozs per ton. The company is completing development work that will increase its proven reserves and increase the production of the mines as it brings its mills up to capacity and brings additional concessions on production.
