AZK - at least 175,000 oz Aurizon Mines Ltd.: Gold Production at Casa Berardi to Commence in November 2006; Encouraging Drill Results From the Principal Zones Friday November 10, 9:00 am ET
The mill is currently processing material from the surface stockpile of development ore and should be operating at the initial production rate of 1,600 tonnes per day by mid November, 2006. Thereafter, mill feed will come from the underground stopes currently being developed. Mill throughput will gradually increase to 2,200 tonnes per day over the next twelve months in accordance with the feasibility study. biz.yahoo.com
AUQ.V - 20,000 oz of which they have 50% This post by DJE leads to a link of a PDF file. Message 22953420 Please read posts by Baystocks to get a complete feel for this ... then you decide
EPM - should start sometime in October 2007 Message 23003574
GGN.V - about 65,000+ production when up and running siliconinvestor.com Message 23004207
GOZ.V - currently producing 20-25,000oz/yr, shooting for 75,000+oz in 2007 ... now it's from old low grade stockpiles, plus development ore, and lately a test mining bit from the Victoria vein ... they could go into full production at any time, mill is modern and operating, they're fully permitted, they've got ten years reserves at their intended near-term production, but they seem to have elected to finish the fease and keep developing, presumably to set up the most optimum mine plan for when they do get rolling
Current cash cost is around usd400 but that is because they're processing the low grade piles ... they're looking for cash cost at usd300 or better ... so figure 75k times 300 free cash flow, that's usd22.5m ... market cap now is roughly cdn33m, fully diluted ... so, trading at less than 1.5 times fairly-near term cash flow, that's why i picked up quite a bit of it Message 23004700

ADA.V - Acadian Gold will be a 2007 producer of zinc, which will fund their gold production likely to follow in 2008/2009 acadiangold.ca Scotia Goldfields Project
These four projects collectively host measured and indicated resources of 527,536 ounces of gold plus inferred resources of 826,670 ounces of gold. Drilling programs designed to increase these figures are ongoing. The Company’s objective is to develop these four key projects, followed by others, into regional mines that collectively utilize a central processing, management and servicing facility. Particular emphasis is being put on identifying bulk tonnage –open pittable gold deposits in the Nova Scotia goldfields, an approach given little attention in the past.

The Cannu zone gold mineralization represents a potential 350 metre northern extension to the proposed Portage open pit, which contains an estimated 1.59 million ounces of reserves. With the addition of Cannu, continuous mineralization has been defined over a strike length of approximately 2.15 kilometres in the Portage area. The 2006 exploration program includes systematic infill and step-out drilling to define the extent of the Cannu mineralization and enable a reserve estimate by early 2007 biz.yahoo.com
