About Avion Gold Corporation
Avion is a Canadian-based gold mining company focused in West
Africa that holds 80% of the Tabakoto and Segala gold
projects in Mali. Gold production commenced at these projects
in 2009 with approximately 51,290 ounces produced. 2010
production was 87,630 ounces of gold. Production
sustainability will continue to be supported and enhanced by
an aggressive 2011 drill program over an approximately 600
km2 exploration package that both surrounds and is near to
the Company's existing mine infrastructure. The current
mineral resources estimate for the Tabakoto project
demonstrates several sources of excellent grade open pit and
good grade underground mineral resources thus providing
significant flexibility for Avion's future mining plans.
On July 5, 2011 Avion announced its initial proven or
probable mineral reserve estimate of 7.24 million tonnes
grading 3.92 g/t Au totaling 913,100 ounces of gold at the
Tabakoto Project. Additionally, the 1,670 km2 Hounde
exploration property in Burkina Faso continues to return
promising results. These properties are subject to a budgeted
US$ 16 million dollars, greater than 75,000 metre,
drill-focused, exploration program in 2011. Avion continues
to progress towards its medium term goal of 200,000 ounces of
gold per year and a longer term goal of organic growth
through development of its exploration properties. The
Company is developing an underground mine at the Tabakoto
deposit, and is preparing to mine underground at the Segala
deposit. Avion has a highly skilled management team, with a
focus on growth and consolidation within West Africa.
