VANCOUVER, Oct. 31, 2013 /CNW/ - Gold Mountain Mining Corporation (the "Company" or "Gold Mountain") is pleased to announce that it has completed the first 500 dry short tons of the 10,000 tonne bulk sample from its 100% owned Elk Gold property, located near Merritt, British Columbia. The 500 ton sample averaged 13.8 grams per tonne and contained 201 ounces of recoverable gold.
Vein material was trucked to a third party gold milling facility to process the first batch of material from the bulk sample program. The vein material was crushed, sampled and is being processed to gold bullion. The actual average settlement grade for the process material was 13.8 grams per tonne with a gold recovery rate of 97.99%. The settlement price for the payable gold was $1270.50 USD per troy oz. based on the LME spot gold price 21 days after vein material began processing at the milling facility. Total gross proceeds from the sale was $250,408 USD.
The gold grade and tonnage from the final gold milling figures match to within 5% of both the mine site grade estimate of vein material extracted, and the polygonal resource grade estimated from diamond drill holes within the bulk sample pit. These results add another level of confidence in the modeling of the Elk Gold deposit and provide valuable information for mine planning and processing moving forward.
Both the gold milling contractor and Gold Mountain Mining Corporation were pleased with the results of the initial trial sample. Discussions are now underway with regards to the potential for larger scale shipments of Elk Gold bulk sample material to the gold milling contractor.
The Company's Senior Geologist, Robert Wilson, P.Geo., acts as the Company's Qualified Person for technical disclosure per National Instrument 43-101, and has reviewed and approved the technical content of this press release.
