Luna Gold-Unsuccessful Robbery Attempt at Aurizona Gold Mine

09.11.2011  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/09/11 -- Luna Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE: LGC)(BVLAC: LGC) ('Luna Gold' or the 'Company') -
An unsuccessful robbery attempt was made at the Aurizona gold mine in the early hours of Wednesday, November 9, 2011. Armed individuals who had taken employees as hostages from a nearby village attempted to force entry to Luna Gold's gold storage facility located at site. All of the hostages were released unharmed and no injuries were sustained by any employees at Aurizona. The individuals were unsuccessful in the attempted robbery and no gold was stolen.


Production at Aurizona continues without interruption with some damage sustained to the gold storage facility.


The policies and procedures introduced after the robbery in December 2010 prevented a loss of gold in this unsuccessful attempt. Luna Gold will continue to monitor and upgrade security policies and procedures. Police are currently on site at Aurizona working with management to investigate the robbery.
