Tue, June 9, 2009 Placer Gold Corp.: Placer Gold Corp (OTC: PGCR) Gold Mines Update
LAS VEGAS NV--(Marketwire - June 9, 2009) - Placer Gold Corp. (
The Company plans to shortly jump from a junior explorer to a gold producer. Securing mine Financing on viable terms is the primary challenge facing the Company today.
BEAR CREEK MINE:
The company and its partners have a fully equipped alluvial gold mine at Bear Creek in Alaska which can be bought back into production immediately, subject to securing financing:
1. The Bear Creek mine has 400 yard/hr dredge equipment on site ready to re-commence production. 2. Delivery of gold bullion could begin as soon as 30 days after funding. 3. Cash production cost less than $200 per ounce.
In addition to existing Bear Creek property under option, the company has the large-scale Nome alluvial gold project ready for development and is actively seeking mine construction financing for it.
PGCR is also evaluating new immediate production properties to increase future gold production. Due to the deteriorating economic situation, especially in developing economies, very attractive gold properties are available at fire-sale prices. The company has people on the ground in North and South America and is making offers on any attractive properties deemed ready for immediate mine construction.
