Stocks in play: Pershing Gold Corporation
Announced the start of preliminary construction activities at Relief Canyon. On February 13, Ames Construction began initial land clearing in preparation for potential construction at Relief Canyon, including future heap leach pads, haul roads and waste rock storage facilities. If the Company is able to achieve further financing for the project, it will then be able to move directly into construction of the heap leach pads, overland conveyors, crushing facilities, contractor yards, and process plant optimization. The current plan anticipates contract mining of the permitted Phase 1 open pit, and contract-mining personnel would mobilize during this period. Pershing Gold Corporation
