Mining News: News Nuggets: Diamond Gold plans to build mill near Seward

Diamond Gold Corp. Jan. 8 unveiled plans to build and operate a 100 short-ton-per-day hard rock mill in the Seward Mining District. The Alaska-based gold and gem mining company is considering a number of locations for the mill, including: Moose Pass, Crown Point or Seward. Ore to feed the year-round mill will be purchased and mined from small gold-quartz mines operating in Hope, Summit Lake and Crown Point. The company is also considering the potential of shipping ore from the Port Wells district. A 20- to 25-person work force is expected to be needed and salaries are expected to average roughly US$100,000 per year. Diamond Gold said it prefers to hire a local work force and will provide all required job and safety training.
