Atacama Corporate Update

05.10.2012  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 10/05/12 -- Atacama Pacific Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE: ATM) ("Atacama") reports that Nathan Brewer has resigned as a director of Atacama. Mr. Brewer, a geologist with international mineral exploration experience, is currently Vice President Exploration, Americas Region with Gold Fields Exploration and joined the Board of Directors, at Gold Fields' request, shortly after Atacama's initial public offering in November 2010.


"On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank Nate for his support as a member of the Board as we have seen Cerro Maricunga Gold Project grow over the past 2 years into a world-class oxide gold deposit," said Dr. Albrecht Schneider, Executive Chairman of Atacama.


Atacama recently announced that the measured and indicated resource at its 100% owned Cerro Maricunga Gold Project increased 65% to 2.667 million ounces of gold in 163.9 million tonnes grading 0.51 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au"), at a 0.3 g/t Au cut-off, with a further 1.810 million ounces of gold in 120.7 million tonnes grading 0.47 g/t Au in the inferred category.


Phase IV Program


The Phase IV campaign at the Cerro Maricunga Gold Project is scheduled to commence in November 2012 and will comprise 20,000 to 25,000 metres of drilling along with a program of bulk metallurgical samples for bench plant testwork. The majority of the drill program will be dedicated to upgrading the current inferred resources and testing exploration targets. In addition, Atacama's preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") on Cerro Maricunga is scheduled for release towards the end of 2012. The results of the PEA will establish the benchmark engineering parameters and capital expenditures for a mining and heap leach processing operation at Cerro Maricunga.


Option Grant


Atacama Pacific has granted an aggregate of 85,000 options of which 25,000 were granted to a director of the Company and 60,000 were granted to consultants. Each option entitles the holder to acquire one Atacama Pacific common share at an exercise price of $3.25 until October 3, 2017.
