Ore continues to be added to the heap from El Pozo. No further tonnage is planned to be trucked from the Open Pit at this time.

Accessing More Mineable Material - About 15,000 mineable tonnes is estimated to remain at El Pozo to be transported to the crusher. There are about 2,000 tonnes uncrushed on the ground at the crusher. A second lot of samples was delivered to Jacobs' Assay Lab in Tucson on Monday morning, June 2. Read more »
