New Guinea Gold Corporation: Definitive Feasibility Study
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/29/11 -- New Guinea Gold Corporation ('NGG' or the 'Company') (TSX VENTURE: NGG)(FRANKFURT: NG8) has appointed GR Engineering Services to conduct a Definitive Feasibility Study into the installation of a CIL / CIP Processing Plant at the Sinivit Gold Mine.
Greg Heaney, Acting CEO, commented: 'It is the Company's belief that there may be economically recoverable gold remaining in the vats and heaps constructed for the initial leaching operation. This Definitive Feasibility Study will test the remnant material, which will total in excess of 400,000 tonnes when the current program concludes, plus an additional high gold / high copper orebody estimated at around 50,000 tonnes, to determine whether the precious metal content can be liberated using an agitated leaching process.'
The Company has estimated that the cost of the Definitive Feasibility Study will not exceed A$500,000 and should be concluded by February 2012.
