Lewis Black, President and CEO of Almonty, commented "As testament to its lean operating structure, given the deterioration in APT pricing, the Los Santos numbers were superb.  We are midway through the initial phase of our two phase twelve month optimization and turn-around plan at the recently acquired Wolfram Camp Mine and results to date are on track.

Phase one: Replacement of hire fleet completed.  Exploration drilling to produce the first mine plans scheduled for completion first week of March 2015.  Ongoing restructuring of all cost centers. Commencement of rebuilding and converting the existing Moly plant into a Tungsten recovery plant similar in design to our former project in Panasquiera.  

Phase two: to commence in Q3 and will include accessing old underground galleries;  continued drilling to expand resource and mine planning; and, expansion of existing tailings dam to meet increased production. 

On completion of Phase two we expect the Wolfram Camp mine to have a similar cost structure to that of our profitable Los Santos Mine."
