Dateline Resources has begun initial production from development drives and stockpiling of ore at its 100%-owned Gold Links project in Colorado, USA as it drives the recommissioning of the Lucky Strike mill ready to commence campaign testing next week.
The Australian-based company is targeting first gold concentrate production and sales from the historic mine in the current quarter.
Dateline plans to ramp up production initially to about 100tpd, with investigations under way to upgrade the circuit to 250tpd. The new producer is reviewing equipment and personnel requirements for options of owner-operator or contract models.
A new drilling contractor has mobilised to site to commence drilling of deeper targets and the remainder of the incomplete 12,000ft underground campaign.
