Isabella Pearl Project: First Gold Dore Bar



The Company broke ground on the Isabella Pearl project in June 2018 with the goal of first gold production by twelve months in June 2019. After ten months of construction progress, the Company announced on March 25, 2019 that it had begun the initial stages of gold processing by applying and circulating leach solution to ore loaded on the heap leach pad.  With the focus on reaching cash flow at the earliest possible time, two panels under leach, and final construction of the project's ADR processing facility ongoing, management decided to utilize a third-party to process gold loaded carbon accumulating in the ADR plant and pour gold dore ahead of schedule.  The dore will be shipped and sold to a refinery in the coming days.  The spent carbon was regenerated and will be returned to the process cycle at the Isabella Pearl project.  Additional gold loaded carbon shipments are planned in the next few days.   

"It is a tremendous milestone to have produced our first gold dore from Isabella Pearl in just over ten months from breaking ground on the project," stated Gold Resource Corporation's CEO and President, Mr. Jason Reid. "Building a project like this is so exciting.  An incredible amount of planning, work and problem solving goes into bringing a project like this online.  Our team is still working hard to complete the final portions of the ADR process facility, from which we expect to pour dore bars on site in the future; however, after evaluating the ease of delivery and reasonable cost to utilize a third-party to process our gold infused carbon, it was an easy decision to achieve cash flow sooner than anticipated. These initial first several hundred ounces of gold are the beginning of what we believe will be a great gold project for Gold Resource Corporation shareholders. We remain focused on ADR construction completion over the next several months and now look towards the project production ramp up phase at Isabella Pearl.  We are placing more ore on the pad, more panels under leach and increasing leach circulation flows."
