For centuries the Incas and the Spaniards exploited gold ore in Zaruma and Portovelo, southern Ecuador. With the price climbing back towards record levels of around 1000 dollars an ounce, the old mines are open again. Small scale mining is drilling the Andean slopes everywhere, with men working hard with ancient tools and techniques. Mercury and cyanide are used to extract gold, polluting the Amarillo river and causing a serious health hazard for the population.
Core Gold has mordernized Zaruma Gold Plant to eliminate >illegal small gold mines operations to NOT use deadly mercury poison for gold recovery - in the upper Amazon river which had in the past poisoned millions of His people and all living from the Amazon water, fish of His South America nature garden -
Cove Gold Use Mordern State of Art Gold and Silver Recovery Systems - are NOT using the deadly mercury - its Great for all involved with Core Gold Inc. - TIA thanks in advance to all:
The Zaruma Gold Mine and Portovelo Mill is Core Gold's legacy project.
The Zaruma Project is located in the central to north-central part of the Portovelo-Zaruma gold mining district in southern Ecuador, in which the total historic gold production from high grade quartz vein systems was estimated to be approximately 4 to 5 million ounces.
The hills of Zaruma and Portovelo have been mined for gold and silver for centuries. The Incas had been extracting gold and silver from the area with hydraulic mining of the oxidized parts of veins when Mercadillo, one of Pizarro´s force, followed the Rio Amarillo River upstream and encountered the Inca mine and founded the town of Zaruma in 1549.
Core Gold Inc. (TSX-V:CGLD)(OTCQX:CGLDF) RE: Core Gold to Present at the 2019 Vancouver Resource Investment Convention -
So here's what a shareholder seen has been done over the past two and a half years:
- Restart the mill, improve the operation, and get it ready for expansion -
- build a new tailings pond, the old one was overflowing -
- make a deal with Green OIl -
- develop Dynasty GF into what appears to be a good source of material
- make a possibly significant discovery, by trenching, at Copper Duke and do a prelim. drilling -
- come out of receivership, and it sounds like this is bigger than maybe was thought as it held up so much
- establish a very good relationship with the gov't, the envy of other companies
- do some community work , and seemingly establishing a good relationship -
- pay off most of the old debt ,which seems to have been substantial
- raise a bunch of money, and for sure it would have been better if done at a better price -
- get drill permits for Copper Duke -
- removed the risk of insolvency
- hired a bunch of pretty impressive people
- not gotten into any JVs, mergers, etc. that were bad for long time shareholders
I am sure others could add more. I guess the big thing that hasn't happened is share price appreciation. And, yes, this is a big disappointment. But in retrospect we were premature in hoping 2018 would be the year. But 2019 ?
