PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Gold miner Beadell Resources on Wednesday reported the resumption of mining activities at its high-grade Duckhead deposit, at the Tucano gold mine, in Brazil.

Beadell introduced a new mine plan at Tucano, aimed at increasing gold production for the full year.

The mine plan focused on the lower-grade main Tucano pits during the first half of the year, and during the wet season, while mining at the higher-grade Duckhead would be reduced.

The gold miner said  that its focus had now shifted back to the Duckhead deposit, with mining activities resuming immediately.

The project’s production guidance for the full year remains unchanged at between 200 000 oz and 220 000 oz of gold, at a cash cost of between $535/oz and $585/oz.
