Gahcho Kue ramping-up to commercial production
The De Beers Group of Companies (51%) and Mountain Province Diamonds (49%) announced in early August that commissioning was complete at their Gahcho Kue diamond project in Canada's Northwest Territories. Ore from the mine was being fed to the processing plant, and ramp-up to commercial production was scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2017. Gahcho Kue's probable mineral reserve stands at 35.4 million mt, grading 1.57 carats/mt for total diamond content of 55.5 million carats. Production is planned to average 4.5 million carats/y over a 12-year mine life. First ore was exposed at Gahcho Kue on March 23; first ore was introduced into the plant on June 20; and first commissioning carats were recovered on June 30.
