Animas' Deal with DKM at Santa Gertrudis Expires
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/19/13 -- Animas Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: ANI) announces that its letter of intent with Dore King Min SA de CV ("DKM"), a private Mexican gold mining company, expired on June 30, 2013 after the exclusivity period was over. The Letter of Intent required certain conditions to be met before June 30th, 2013 and those conditions were not met.
Animas is now free to consider other methods of moving the Santa Gertrudis Gold Project towards becoming a gold producing mine again. The Company is considering several other options for Santa Gertrudis and continues working towards permitting, development, construction, and restarting gold production at the Santa Gertrudis Gold Project. Animas is not considering selling the company at this time due to the low value of the shares.
The Santa Gertrudis Gold Project (the "SG Property"), located 180 km north of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, was discovered by Phelps Dodge in 1986 and advanced to open pit heap leach production in 1991. From May 1991 to October 2000, the Santa Gertrudis Property produced 564,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 2.13 grams Au/tonne. Phelps Dodge sold part of the Santa Gertrudis Property to Campbell Resources in 1994 for US$10 million. Campbell later ceased mining and processing activity due to low gold prices during the late 1990's and settled some outstanding debts by assigning several core area concessions, including the un-mined Cristina deposit, to certain local Mexican contractors. The Amelia Mine, also on Animas' project area, was estimated to have historically produced over 1 million tonnes at 2.88g Au/tonne.
Animas has a NI43-101 compliant gold resource estimated for Santa Gertrudis which is detailed on the website at .
