30 May 2017resource reserve update▲ GoodMajor

Richmont released the Preliminary Economic Assessment for Island Gold that had been under way. It outlines raising mine and mill output from 900 to 1,100 tonnes per day, for about 115,000 ounces a year on average over 8 years (125,000 excluding the 2017-2018 ramp-up), with about C$28.2 million of incremental capital and cash costs of about C$650 per ounce. It is a preliminary study, not a production decision, and it uses only about 24% of the inferred resources.

Richmont reported new drilling results at Island Gold, led by hole GD-640-05 with 20.6 g/t gold over 11.3 metres (core length), about 800 metres east of the main deposit. It follows the January 2017 reserve growth; the company says more drilling is needed to understand the geometry and true width, and it is adding a second directional rig there. 2017 plans include 30,000 metres of delineation drilling and 16,000 metres of deep directional drilling plus 20,000 metres underground.

31 Jan 2017drilling result▲ GoodMajor

Richmont reported year-end 2016 reserves. Island Gold's proven and probable reserves rose 34% to 752,200 ounces at 9.17 g/t, with inferred resources of 995,700 ounces at 10.18 g/t. Beaufor's reserves fell 30% to 44,920 ounces, because drilling did not offset mining and some low-grade blocks were removed. The company was then producing from both mines.
