Press Release
Unico, Inc. Adds New Photo Gallery Showing Additional Reconstruction Progress at the Mill and Processing Facility at the Deer Trail Mine
Issued Thursday May 18, 9:39 am ET
SAN DIEGO, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--May. 18, 2007--Unico, Incorporated (OTC BB: UCOI), a natural resource company in the precious metals mining sector, today announced the addition of a new photo gallery to the company's website, www.unicomining.com, showing recent reconstruction progress at the mill and processing facility at the Deer Trail Mine in Marysvale, Utah. The new photo gallery can be viewed by visiting http://www.unicomining.com./news/othermedia.php.
The photo gallery shows the recently delivered Krebs Cyclone (www.krebs.com), which will be installed in the main mill building and used for the classification of ores processed through the ball mill. The Krebs Cyclone is expected to increase efficiency of the grinding circuit. Its primary function will be to indicate whether the ore is too course and must be recycled back through the ball mill.
Several photographs show the delivery of the rolled steel used for the walls of the WesTech 40-foot thickener, which will primarily be used to thicken tailings, to the Deer Trail Mine site. There is one picture of the first section of walls installed in the new mill building.
A new trench that has been dug from the upper water holding pond where a pipeline will be installed to carry water for the floatation circuit and other processes at the mill is also shown in several photographs in the gallery.
Photographs of wiring, conduit and stop/start controls are included in the gallery, including several low voltage items in the main mill building that are already connected and are being tested using generator power.
The last section of photographs in the gallery shows several members of Unico management who recently visited the Deer Trail Mine to review reconstruction progress, meet with management of Unico's wholly owned subsidiary, Deer Trail Mining Company, and conduct other business related to activities at the property. Mark Lopez, chief executive officer of Unico, Inc., was onsite, as was Unico's chief financial officer, Ken Wiedrich, who escorted a representative from Unico independent auditing firm, HJ Associates & Consultants, LLP of Salt Lake City, on his visit to the Deer Trail Mine.
"During our visit to the Deer Trail Mine earlier this week, we were very pleased to view firsthand the recent progress at the mill and processing facility, and look forward to the additional milestones that are expected in the near future," stated Mark A. Lopez, chief executive officer of Unico, Inc. "We were similarly pleased to have Mr. Wiedrich join us for his first site visit, as well as one of the partners from our independent auditing firm, HJ Associates & Consultants, LLP. We expect site visits by members of Unico management to become an even more regular occurrence as processing operations are established at the mill and processing facility at the Deer Trail Mine."
