About 200,000 tonnes of ore have been placed on leach pads since mining began in April. The company estimates that 10,000 oz. gold are contained in solution and within ore on the pads.
The mine is expected to produce 60,000 oz. gold annually over a life span of about eight years.
Canarc wants to sell its NPI and redirect the funds towards its New Polaris gold project in British Columbia and Benzdorp gold project in Suriname.
Glencairn also produces gold at its Limon mine in Nicaragua. Last year Limon turned out 48,000 oz. gold, and a similar total is expected in 2005.
