San Gold Resumes Milling Operations WINNIPEG, MANITOBA--(Marketwire - July 2, 2012) -
San Gold Corporation (TSX:SGR)(OTCQX:SGRCF) announces today that milling operations resumed July 1 at its Rice Lake Mining Complex, with more than 1,900 tons milled on the first day of operations.
Milling operations were suspended in early June after its ball mill pinion suffered an unexpected failure. Mining operations continued at an average rate of more than 1,600 tons per day while repairs were completed to the ball mill. As a result, approximately 54,000 tons of ore were stockpiled as of June 30.
The Company has substantially increased its milling capacity over the past year, achieving peak daily production of 2,500 tons per day during the second quarter. As a result of this increased capacity, the Company expects to mill the majority of this stockpile during the third quarter and remains confident in its annual guidance of between 95,000 and 105,000 ounces of gold produced in 2012.
"It is a testament to the strength of the operations team that we are able to experience this kind of event with little overall impact on our operations," said George Pirie, San Gold's President and Chief Executive Officer.
During this period, the Company also completed various other maintenance activities related to milling operations, including the scheduled annual liner change in the ball mill.

hotdog I agree, the LT POG Gold Prices Could Peak at $5,000: Bank of America Posted on September 21, 2012 by News 21-Sep (CNBC) —
As gold prices hit a 2012 record of $1,787.40 per ounce on Friday, Bank of America Merrill Lynch analysts said the precious metal could soar to $3,000 or even $5,000 over the longer-term.
“We will be focusing in on gold. Ultimately we think gold can trade between $3,000 and $5,000 an ounce going forward,” MacNeil Curry, head of foreign-exchange and rates technical strategy at BAML, told CNBC’s “Worldwide Exchange.” “Certainly not within the next few months, but on a long-term basis we are on a well-defined uptrend, and we have got more to run before that runs its course.”
…“We believe the growth in supply of fiat currencies [those without intrinsic value] such as the U.S. dollar and dollar- linked currencies such as the renminbi is a key driver, followed by concerns regarding inflation and inflation volatility which could follow,” Brebner and Fu said in the report.

WINNIPEG, MANITOBA--(Marketwire - Oct. 22, 2012) - George Pirie, President and Chief Executive Officer for
San Gold Corporation (TSX:SGR)(OTCQX:SGRCF), is pleased to announce interim results of its ongoing 2012 diamond drilling program on the 007 deposit within the Company's 100% owned Rice Lake Project located in Bissett, approximately 235 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The Rice Lake Project has a permitted, modern gold mill currently processing ore at a capacity of 2,500 tons per day, modern surface infrastructure including a licensed tailings management facility, and is connected to the Manitoba power grid system.
Since being discovered in 2009, the 007 deposit continues to demonstrate robust grades and widths across all four lenses of the deposit and it continues to be consistent at depth while structural characteristics are becoming increasingly predictable.
This drilling activity is part of the Company's program to upgrade resources into higher confidence categories and to increase reserves within the mining complex. Overall results are positive and comparable with the Company's March 31, 2012 resource update. The Company will continue drilling for the remainder of 2012 and provide a resource update in the first quarter of 2013.
"The 007 deposit drilling continues to prove up high-quality resources which are accessible from existing infrastructure. The drilling continues to confirm the continuity of the deposit at depth. The ongoing development of the 16 and 26 Levels will provide drill platforms for further resource and reserve definition. Mining is currently scheduled to begin from these levels in early 2014," said Mr. Pirie.
