Orinoco ships first gold from Cascavel

Gold miner Orinoco Gold has shipped its first gold parcel from the Cascavel mine, in Brazil, for refining and sale, marking another milestone in the project’s ramp-up to commercial production. “The first gold shipment, comprising gold produced from stockpiled development material, marks another significant and exciting milestone in the development of the Cascavel mine and the Faina greenstone belt as a new gold district in Brazil,” said Orinoco MD Mark Papendieck.
