VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - October 08, 2014) - INCA ONE GOLD CORP. (TSX VENTURE: IO)("Inca One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed its first multi-delivery Letter of Agreement ("LOA") to purchase mill feed for the Chala One gold ore processing plant.
Highlights
LOA signed with permitted mining operator in Peru. Ore feed meets the targets for grade, quality and consistency. 100 tonnes per day ("TPD") crushing circuit complete and stockpiling has commenced. The LOA is with a Peruvian government-approved third party mining company where they will provide an initial 350 tonnes per month ("TPM") as they continue to ramp their mining operations to 1,000 TPM.
As part of our growth strategy it is our mandate is to secure ore from several sources. This is the first ore agreement secured of many the Company is currently working on to provide ongoing mill feed of 100TPD.
Inca One has completed its upgrades to the new 100 TPD crushing circuit allowing the Chala One plant to crush, sample and stockpile ore to be ready for processing upon completion of the plant construction, expected in Q4 2014.
The completed crushing circuit also allows the company to crush and sample potential mill feed quickly, which we anticipate will help in securing additional ore supply contracts shortly.
Mr. Jaime Polar VP Development and Operations Peru states, "We are very pleased to have established this relationship with a recognized and proven mining operator in Peru. As licensed miners and ore processors, we both value our transparency, business ethics and working relationship and intend to build out a significant and mutually profitable business relationship."
Inca One, with plant construction on budget and on schedule is well capitalized to purchase ore and build an inventory of ready-to-process ore from Peruvian government-approved mining operators that meet the high standards of grade and metallurgical recovery being sought to enhance the mill economics the Company is seeking.
