HALIFAX, Jan. 26, 2015 /CNW/ - GoGold Resources Ltd. (TSX: GGD), (GoGold), is pleased to provide an update on the commissioning of its Parral Tailings Project in Mexico.  Quarterly production has doubled from 115,667 silver equivalent ounces in the quarter ending September 30, 2014 to 230,240 silver equivalent ounces in the quarter ending December 31, 2014.  Cash cost per ounce of silver averaged $5.97 (net of gold credits) and $6.62 per silver equivalent ounce during the quarter ending December 31, 2014.  Tonnes stacked on the heap leach pad increased from 82,264 tonnes in November to 148,347 tonnes in December which is near the designed stacking rate of 150,000 tonnes per month.

Key metrics have continued to improve and realized cash costs are significantly lower than those contained in the Prefeasibility Study ("PFS") released February 21, 2013. Although commissioning had been carried out during one of the most severe rainy seasons in recent history, recovery rates are in line with expectations and the Company expects that as stacking continues at current rates, production will climb to the projected 165,000 of silver equivalent ounces per month as indicated in the PFS.  However, ore grades for tonnes stacked on the heap leach pad are currently approximately 20% higher than those in the PFS, which may be reflected in higher future production as the project continues to ramp up.  Recovery rates are in line with expectations during the commissioning phase, and with optimization continue to climb towards the PFS target.  The company expects that Parral will be one of the lower cost silver producers in Mexico. The following table outlines the key performance indicators tracked during the last quarter which are more fully discussed below.

During the month of November the project went through a number of optimizations to maximize throughput. These optimizations allowed for record agglomerating/stacking in December – 148,347 tonnes or 4,785 tonnes/day which is just under the designed run rate for the mine of 5,000 tonnes/day.  The operating costs per tonne incurred in December are expected to be consistent with future operating costs.

In addition to stacking at plant design rates in December, the back end solution flow to the Merrill Crowe facility is also operating at design rates.  With stacking onto the heap leach pad now at design rates, production will continue to increase as the leach cycle should take 60-90 days.  Tonnes stacked on the heap leach pad and solution flow to the Merrill Crowe facility continue to operate at design rates to date in January.  For the current zone being processed, the PFS predicted production of 165,000 silver equivalent ounces per month when fully ramped up.  The company continues to outperform the PFS with regard to the grade deposited as well as the cost per tonne as the company moves towards commercial production.  The company realized an average price of $15.38 per ounce of silver during the quarter, while the mine generated positive EBITDA of $1,326,758. This emphasizes the robust economics of the Parral project in the current low metal price environment.
