HALIFAX, Oct. 6, 2016 /CNW/ - GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) ("GoGold", "the Company") announces toll milling of high grade material at Santa Gertrudis. The Company has secured a 150 tonne per day (tpd) mill to continue milling the high grade material on surface at Santa Gertrudis during the construction of the first vat leach plant. To date, the Company has mined in excess of 6,000 tonnes of material at an average grade of 13.5 g/t with 3,700 tons processed at the mill and the remainder in a stockpile. The company estimates the total cost per tonne of the Santa Gertrudis material will be $125 per tonne which will generate significant cash flow per ounce.  As of the end of September the Company had poured 383 ounces of gold from Santa Gertrudis.

As of October 5, 2016 there is in excess of 800 gold ounces (approximately 54,400 silver equivalent ounces) in process from the Santa Gertrudis operation. The Company plans to continue to process high grade material and generate cash flow at the 150 tpd mill for the next six months while constructing the first phase of the Santa Gertrudis vat leach plant.

The rainy season has now ended and production at Parral will increase significantly for the quarter ended December 31, 2016.  The Company estimates production of 400,000 – 500,000 silver equivalent ounces during the quarter ended December 31, 2016 as Parral ramps back up and Santa Gertrudis continues to toll mill high grade material through the next six months as the vat construction is completed.

Total production for the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2016 was 183,105 silver equivalent ounces.  The Company was able to capitalize on the opportunity of an available mill, restarted the mill and began toll milling high grade material at surface from the Santa Gertrudis gold mine in the last half of September which will generate significant cash flow during the phase one construction of the vat leach plant.
