LIMA, Peru--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Graystone Company (OTC Bulletin Board: GYST), announced that its 100% owned subsidiary Grupo Minero Inca (a Peruvian Corporation) has claimed a additional mining concession in Peru. The new concession has been named Graystone II and is 800 hectares (or 1,976.84 acres) or approximately 8,000,000 square meters (or 3.08 square miles). The additional property is adjacent to the Company's current mining property, Gorilla (aka Graystone I). The acquisition of the additional concession increases the Company's total portfolio of properties to 1,200 hectares (or 2,965.27 acres) or approximately 12,000,000 square meters (or 4.63 square miles). Both Gorilla and Graystone II are owned 100% by the Company.
The Company has done preliminary testing on approximately 10-15% of Graystone II. The initial results indicate that the part of Graystone II that was tested may contain as much as 20,000 ounces of gold (or $32,000,000 at $1,600 per ounce). Based on this information, the Company has deemed it worthwhile to continue to test the remaining part of Graystone II to determine the amount of gold on the entire property and to map the property for production. Once the testing and mapping are completed, the Company will have a plan for production and know how much of the property is viable to mine.
"The initial testing on Graystone II has been successful," said Paul Howarth, Managing Director of The Graystone Company, "however we need to continue to test the property and complete the feasibility study. We will conduct a feasibility study to determine how much of the property is economically minable. There will always be portions of projects that are not cost effective to mine. But to have such positive initial results this early into our projects is exciting and we are looking forward to moving these properties toward production."
The proximity of Graystone II with Gorilla will allow the Company to maximize its resources in the area and provide the Company with base of operations to mine both Gorilla and Graystone II.
The Company claimed Graystone II prior to GMI being a 100% owned subsidiary. The Company is currently finalizing the paperwork to have the claims transferred into GMI's name.
The Company is currently finalizing the internal report on the testing completed on Gorilla and expects to release the data soon.
