Bonterra Resources announces final gold sale from Bachelor Mill cleanup
Bonterra Resources Inc. has recovered and sold 1,346.5 ounces of gold in total, generating gross revenue of C$3.6 million (including the first gold sale announced on August 9, 2023) from the Bachelor Mill cleanup process. The costs associated with the sales, which include gold recovery efforts, shipment, royalty payments and refining represent a total of C$0.9 million for a net revenue of C$2.7 million.
Marc-André Pelletier, President and CEO, commented: "Following the receipt of an additional C$4 million from the recent transaction with Osisko Mining and the abovementioned gold sales, the Company should now have enough funds to complete this year's 15,000 meters drill campaign at our 100%-owned Desmaraisville properties. There is presently three drill rigs turning at Desmaraisville focusing on high-grade intercepts that were previously drilled but not followed up on and other regional exploration targets that have never been drilled.
"Throughout the year, we have creatively generated revenue and significantly reduced expenses while diligently spending on exploration work. I would like to thank our employees for their dedicated efforts in making these achievements possible."
