VNCKF I can dig it!
TORONTO, ONTARIO, Oct 29, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) -- Victory Nickel Inc. ("Victory Nickel" or the "Company") (NI) today announced that a fourth crew is now in place at its Seven Persons frac sand plant (the "7P Plant") in Alberta enabling the 7P Plant to operate on a 24-hour-per-day, seven-day-per-week schedule to produce up to 500,000 tons-per-year ("tpy") of 16/30, 20/40, 30/50 and 40/70 Wisconsin northern white frac sand.
"As previously advised, we have been operating below capacity since signing our first take-or-pay contract in August as we wanted to ensure customer demand would warrant adding the fourth and final operating team," said Ken Murdock, CEO of wholly-owned subsidiary Victory Silica Ltd. ("Victory Silica"). "We are seeing good traction in the western Canadian frac sand market and are comfortable that now is the right time to maximize the production capability at the 7P Plant."
