Gold World Resources Signs Memorandum of Understanding for the Jin Yin Dong
Gold Mine in the Guizhou Province, China
TORONTO, March 23 /CNW/ - Gold World Resources Inc. (GDW-TSX-V), ("GWR" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Guizhou Rong Huai Investment Development Ltd. ("GZRH") for the acquisition of the 100 tonne/day capacity, operating, Jin Yin Dong Gold Mine ("JYD Mine"). The MOU was signed at GWR's headquarters in Toronto during a recent visit of the majority owner and representative from GZRH.
Subject to the signing of a formal contract, GWR, as majority holder, and GZRH agreed to establish a Cooperative Company ("CC") to jointly exploring, developing and mining (production) the gold mineralization of the 41.2 km(2) property of the JYD Mine.
The fully permitted operating mine is the product of a recent consolidation of three adjacent mines. The mine has an Exploration License; a Mining License; a Gold Mining Certificate (production license) and a Business License. All licenses are current.
- The 17.8 km(2) Mining License is included in the 41.2 km(2) Exploration License. - Geologically, the mine is located on the gold rich Nan Hua Fold Belt and is a quartz vein type gold deposit. The Jin Jing Gold Mine, which is located approximately 20km away from the site, has reportedly produced approximately 20 tonnes of gold (640,000 ounces) during the last 4 years. - The JYD Mine's gold grades, due to the nugget effect, fluctuate between 3.12 g/t to 140.7g/tonne according to private and government reports. The average grade of the Chinese Standard Resources of the mine (332+333+334 categories*) is 16.34g/tonne. - Historical diamond drilling on the mine property identified a "historical resource" of 904kg* of gold (approximately 30,000 ounces) as determined by the Chinese System. - The mine has good access roads, available grid power and milling facilities for gravity separation of the coarse gold from the quartz host rock.
The Company believes that the size of the property, the showing of numerous adits from previous mining activities, the indicative gold grade and the presence of three existing mines make the JYD Mine an attractive acquisition for GWR. Management of GWR sees the acquisition of the JYD Mine as one more step in the Company's strategy to become a mid-size gold producer by accumulating a number of small-scale producing gold mines in China, where the Company can apply its mining and exploration expertise to define reserves, upgrade productivity and gold recovery in order to create value for shareholders.
The Company will provide continuing disclosure on the MOU as final details are confirmed.
The Company is exploring for precious metals in China and recently announced that it had attained a full 70% interest in Hebei Ming Yu Mining Corporation.
