Press Releases

TORONTO, Ontario, June 9, 2020 – 1911 Gold Corporation ("1911 Gold" or the "Company") (TSX-V: AUMB) is pleased to provide an update on the 2020 tailings reprocessing operation at the company’s True North complex in Manitoba. As of May 20, 2020, the Company successfully returned all essential operating personnel to site on an incremental basis commencing April 29, 2020. To date the COVID-19 mitigation procedures have been adopted by site personnel and continue to provide a safe working environment for all employees. For further information on the procedures the Company has implemented please refer to the website at https://www.1911gold.com/corporate/covid-notice/.

Since commencing tailings reprocessing operations on May 21, 2020, the Company has steadily increased the daily production rate from 870 tonnes per day (TPD) to 1,165 TPD, at an average grade of 1.0 gram per tonne. By prioritizing readily accessible areas of the tailings management area and continuously preparing other areas through excavating, windrowing and drying tailings material, the Company expects the tailings operation to recover from the delayed start due to COVID-19.  Production is currently forecasted at between 190,000 and 200,000 tonnes over the next 5 months, depending on the onset of the winter season.

Ron Clayton, 1911 Gold President and CEO, commented, “We are pleased with safe return of our employees to site and the widespread adoption of the new sanitation and safety protocols. We will continue to focus on the safety of our people and the surrounding communities, adapting our procedures and operations as required. The strength of our people is what has allowed our operations to normalize and return to focusing on our goal of finding and developing the next major gold mine in the region.”
