Detour Gold pours one-millionth gold ounce at flagship mine
TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – Emerging midtier gold miner Detour Gold has poured its one-millionth ounce of gold at its 100%-owned Detour Lake mine, in Ontario, on September 16, about 30 months after pouring its first gold bar on February 18, 2013.
To mark the milestone, Ontario’s Minister of Northern Development and Mines Michael Gravelle, local mayors and Aboriginal leaders visited the Detour Lake mine on Monday.
"We're pleased to celebrate this significant achievement in just over two-and-a-half years with our employees, contractors and Aboriginal partners. Our goal is to ensure that our next [one-]millionth ounce of gold is produced with improved operational excellence, strong environmental stewardship and a leading safety culture,” Detour president and CEO Paul Martin noted in a statement.
TSX-listed Detour expected to produce between 475 000 oz and 525 000 oz of gold this year.
