LIMA, Peru--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Graystone Company (OTC: GYST) announced today that the Company’s mining operations in Peru has transported approximately 180 tons of copper ore to the processing plant. Once the Company has transported 200 tons of copper ore, the processing plant will begin to process the ore. The Company expects to have the 200 tons delivered to the processing plant in the next 10-14 days and expects the processing to take 7-10 days.
Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture, the Company will receive all monies paid for operations from the gross dollar amount received from the sale of the copper prior to any distributions made to the joint venture partners. The Company will update shareholders once the processing of the copper ore has been completed.
On March 29, 2014 the company started testing the high-grade ore and sent samples to a local lab. The initial results received on March 29, 2014 indicated the Company’s high-grade copper ore samples contained 6% copper. On April 1, 2014 the Company received additional lab reports showing the samples contained a high level of 23.1% copper and a low level of 14% copper.
