CASTLE MOUNTAIN GOLD MINE Equinox Gold
Higher gold prices justify putting the mine back into production. The Castle Mountain Gold Mine produced more than one million ounces of gold as an openpit heapleach mine from 1992 to 2004, when the mine was shut down due to low gold prices. Material below g/t gold mined from the Oro Belle and Jumbo pits was placed into the JSLA pit.
