Belo Sun Mining Advances Volta Grande Project, Brazil-Awards Bankable Feasibility Study
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 07/18/11 -- Belo Sun Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE: BSX) (the "Company" or "Belo Sun") announces that AMEC Minproc Engenharia e Consultoria Limitada (AMEC), AMEC's mining and metals business based in Brazil, has been selected to conduct the Bankable Feasibility Study for its Volta Grande Gold Project in Para State, Brazil.
AMEC is an internationally recognized leader in the design, engineering and construction of gold projects, with extensive experience developing projects in Brazil. Their experience and expertise in developing mining projects, as well as their knowledge of regulations specific to Brazil will be an important part for the development of the Volta Grande Project. The Feasibility Study will commence immediately and is expected to be completed in July 2012.
The Bankable Feasibility Study will also include an updated mineral resource model, which will incorporate the results from the current exploration drill program. The updated mineral resource model is expected for completion in the third quarter of this year. Belo Sun anticipates that this portion of the study will further demonstrate a continued expansion of estimated mineral resources, which could potentially have positive effects on production projections as well as the overall economics of the Volta Grande Project as was initially outlined in a 2009 Preliminary Economic Assessment.
Mark Eaton, CEO commented, "Awarding the Feasibility Study represents an important milestone for Belo Sun as we move the Volta Grande Project forward. We are very pleased to announce the next stage of development working with AMEC Minproc, and we believe their solid experience in gold operations design will be a definite advantage for this project."
