Golden Phoenix Alert
Sparks, NV, March 1, 2011
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Golden Phoenix Joint Venture Partner Scorpio Gold Has Activated Leach Pad for Gold
Recovery at Mineral Ridge
SPARKS, NV, MARCH 1, 2011 - Golden Phoenix Minerals, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: GPXM)
joint venture partner Scorpio Gold Corp. has begun the application of solution to
the leach pad for gold recovery at its 70-per-cent-owned, fully financed, fully
permitted Mineral Ridge gold project in Nevada.
Scheduling remains on track to commence processing of pregnant solution through
the ARD plant to initially produce gold later this month.
Crushing, agglomeration and stacking of gold-bearing material mined by previous
owners are continuing, and the application of leaching solution will increase as
the various cell pads are configured. There are presently approximately 280,000
tons of the previously mined material available to be treated on the pad, after
which material for the balance of 2011 will be mined from the Drinkwater pit.
Gold production, which is completely unhedged, is expected to reach a steady state
by June and then continue to track positively in the second half of 2011.
Scorpio Gold's interest in the Mineral Ridge project is expected to increase to
80 per cent before year-end based on Mineral Ridge achieving two quarters of commercial
production pursuant to its agreement with Golden Phoenix Minerals.
Peter J. Hawley, PGeo, president and chief executive officer, is Scorpio Gold's
qualified person for the Mineral Ridge project.
Tom Klein, CEO of Golden Phoenix, summarizes this achievement: "It has been just
one year since we closed the Mineral Ridge joint venture with Scorpio Gold. The
efficiency of this project is a credit to Scorpio's production expertise and our
ability to make projects production-ready."
