Dynacor: June 2012 Record Gold Production
(firmenpresse) - MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwire) -- 07/18/12 -- Dynacor Gold Mines Inc. (TSX: DNG) (Dynacor or the Company) During the past 6 months Dynacor's ore processing plant at Acari has been operating at close to its maximum capacity of 220 tonnes per day and continues to generate a strong cash flow for the Company. In the month of June 2012, Dynacor produced an all-time record of 5,327 ounces of gold as compared to its previous record in February 2012 of 4,747 ounces of gold representing an increase of 12.2%.
During the second quarter the Company produced 12,384 ounces of gold. Production slowed down for a 2-week period in May when the Company stopped purchasing ore in order to assess the impact of the new legislation on its ore purchasing activities and ensure compliance. During this period, the Company processed the low grade ore it had in its inventory albeit at a slower rate.
Ore processing data for gold in Q1 and Q2 2012 is summarized in Table 1 below. Silver production in Q1 and Q2 2012 was 41,112 and 34,529 ounces, respectively. The Company is confident that its production for 2012 will meet or exceed its previously published 2012 guidance of 50,000 ounces of gold.

2012/2013 Outlook for Gold Ore Processing
In order to maintain its growth and gold production momentum, in October 2011, the Company decided to build a new ore processing plant at Chala in southern Peru. As required by the Peruvian mining laws two community participative workshops were sucessfully held in Chala in early 2012. The necessary land for the new plant and tailing ponds has been acquired. An environmental impact study has been submitted to the authorities and the necessary hydrological study realised. The engineering study for the new plant is now complete. The company is awaiting the environmental permit in order to apply for the construction permit, which is the last step to build the new facility.
This new gold ore processing facility will have an initial capacity of 300 tonnes per day and designed to be readily upgraded to 430 tonnes per day. When this new plant comes on stream Dynacor's gold production from ore processing will increase substantially.
