An Average of 81.47% Gold Recovered

Petaquilla Minerals is very happy with their latest statistic of gold recovery. They announced today that 81.47% of gold is recovered from column leach testing of 'low grade' oxide material from its 100% owned Molejon Gold Project located within the Petaquilla Mineral District in Central Panama.

Joao C. Manuel, President and Chief Executive Officer of Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. states, "These early encouraging results have confirmed our in-house opinion of the value of the low grade gold resource. At current market conditions this low grade resource would not be economic to process through our standard Mill\CIP Plant. For this reason we have been systematically evaluating the heap leach option with independent industry experts in order to identify a cost effective treatment process".
