Valterra Resource Corporation reported on the status of bulk sampling currently underway at the Livramento predevelopment-stage gold project, located in the Poconé Mining District, Mato Grasso, Brazil. The planned 5,000-tonne bulk-sampling program follows recommissioning of the Livramento mill and stripping of overburden from two sample sites. Approximately 1,560 tonnes of bulk sample from two vein zones have been processed through the mill as of March 30th, and an additional 1,940 tonnes of bulk sample have been stockpiled for on-going processing. Approximately 50 ounces of gold-rich dore have been recovered through the mill, and initial analyses of the dore indicate a gold concentration of approximately 95.6%, representing an average grade of 0.99 g/t of gold recovered from the bulk sample, including 11.39 ounces from 115 tonnes (3.08 g/t) from the Page vein. Although the plant has been fully commissioned for a capacity of 30 tonnes per hour, the mill is shut down between sample runs of bulk sample, which consist of approximately 100-tonnes each, to allow complete cleaning to insure accurate mill-recovery data.
