MIDWAY POURS FIRST GOLD AT PAN MINE
DENVER, CO - March 27, 2015 - Midway Gold Corp. celebrates the completion of a first gold pour yesterday at the Pan Mine in White Pine County, Nevada. Pan is the Company's first producing mine and has advanced from permitting through construction in just over three years. Yesterday, 20 days after the introduction of cyanide, we poured approximately 100 ounces while commissioning the refinery. As previously indicated, our first production-scale pour, is still scheduled for Monday, March 30th.
"Pouring of gold at the Pan Mine marks the beginning of a new chapter at Midway Gold," Bill Zisch, Midway's President & CEO states. "While we have had many hurdles to overcome during development and construction, our team has persevered and maintained a focus on initial gold production. I want to congratulate and thank our entire Midway team and those who have supported and been a part of this team, past and present, on this momentous accomplishment. It is the culmination of a great deal of work and individual commitments to Midway and the Pan Project."
