TORONTO, Aug. 21, 2019 /CNW/ - RNC Minerals (TSX: RNX) ("RNC") is pleased to announce that gold production for the month of July 2019 was 7,873 ounces.
Paul Andre Huet, Chairman & CEO commented: "As promised during our quarterly call, we are providing more frequent updates. Production of approximately 7,900 ounces during the month of July 2019 is an excellent result for our first full calendar month of consolidated operations following the acquisition of the Higginsville Gold Operation (HGO). Material processed during July was comprised of Beta Hunt mined and stockpile, with excellent recoveries in the 92-94% range. With the addition of HGO open pits, having a combination of feed sources provides the opportunity to blend feeds and optimize throughput and recoveries without having to clean out the entire mill. With Baloo open pit production commencing in early August, I look forward to the continued strong performance of the HGO mill. We anticipate providing production guidance in the coming weeks."
