Lappland Goldminers report updated ore reserves and mineral resources at the Pahtavaara goldmine.
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
· The update will result in an extension of the life-of-mine at
Pahtavaara.
The ore reserves 1 January, 2010 are 678,000 tonnes with 2,79 grams of gold per
tonne. During 2009 the underground production of ore was 307,000 tonnes.
Exploration drillings, that have been carried out since Lappland Goldminers took
over the operation, have partly replaced the mined out tonnage. During 2009
around 220,000 tonnes have been added to the mineral reserves.
The estimates do not include the near-by Länsi mineralization. Eight drill holes
from the autumn drilling progam at Länsi were not logged and analyzed as of
year-end 2009.
Kjell Larsson, CEO comments:
"It is very pleasing to be able to demonstrate that we are on the right track
for the Pahtavaara operations. With increasing exploration efforts during 2010
we are optimistic we can further increase the reserves and continue the mining
operations for several years going forward."

resources please see the attached document to this news release.
