A total of 20,138 tonnes of ore at a feed grade of 6.45 grams / tonne were processed during the month of April with a 97.1% recovery rate.
When commercial production was declared at the Bachelor Mine, in November of 2013, Metanor expected to produce over 40,000 ounces of gold for the year ending June 30th 2014.
Due to the production results since November, Metanor has revised its production forecast to over 45,000 ounces for the same period.
Ghislain Morin, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Serge Roy, Executive Chairman of the board stated: "We are very pleased to revise upward our production forecast at the Bachelor Mine. This allows the company to pursue its first priority of increasing the underground drilling to find and define new zones in the mine thereby eventually increasing our resource and mine life."
