The pour took place on Tuesday and produced 728 oz of gold.

“The first gold pour at Lindero, our third mine in the Americas, is a significant achievement for the company as we advance the mine’s ramp-up phase towards commercial production in the first quarter of 2021.

“Lindero is a mine with reserves for a projected life of 13 years and is a pillar in Fortuna’s asset portfolio,” said president and CEO Jorge Ganoza.
