Golden Band Commences Mining Operations at the Komis Open Pit Gold Mine

04.10.2012  |  CNW

SASKATOON, SK, Oct. 4, 2012 /CNW/ - Golden Band Resources Inc. (TSXV:GBN) (OTCQX: GBRIF) is very pleased to announce that open pit mining operations started at the Company's Komis open pit mine with the first blast in ore on September 29, 2012 and with the first shipment of ore to the Company's Jolu mill on October 3, 2012.

Golden Band President Rob Garden stated: "The commencement of mining at the Komis Mine is a significant milestone in Golden Band's long history as an exploration company but relatively brief history as a Saskatchewan gold producer. The Komis orebody was originally mined as an underground operation. However, after careful study, Golden Band determined that the geology of the orebody was such that significantly greater quantities of gold ore could be mined via an open pit operation. The Komis orebody remains open along strike and at depth. More drilling is planned that we believe will delineate an increased resource."

The Komis mine is located 15 kilometres northwest of the Saskatchewan community of Brabant Lake, and 32 kilometres northeast of the Golden Band's Jolu central processing mill. The Komis open pit mine is centred on the former Komis underground mine, operated by a previous owner in the late 1990's. The Company's mine includes 340,000 tonnes of ore at an average 6.62 grams per tonne gold, for an expected mine life of 18 months.
