Recent enhancements completed at the end of the quarter at the Parral project have increased nameplate stacking capacity from 5,000 tonnes per day (tpd) to 10,000 tpd and have also increased processing capacity at the Merrill-Crowe facility.  During the second quarter ended March 31, 2016 the company stacked at an average of 5,922 tonnes per day which was an increase of 64 percent over the previous quarter of 3,609 tpd.  This translates into 615,121 recoverable silver equivalent ounces stacked on the heap leach pad during the quarter representing a 40 percent improvement over the previous quarter.  "During the previous quarter our focus was on increasing the number of tonnes and recoverable ounces stacked on the pad," said Brad Langille, President and CEO. "Now that stacking rates have increased, shareholders can continue to expect a steady rise in production quarter over quarter for the remainder of the year."

GoGold expects to stack 800,000 to 900,000 recoverable silver equivalent ounces for the quarter ending June 30, 2016 which will translate into continued production growth for the quarter.
