SASKATOON, April 11 /PRNewswire/ - Claude Resources Inc. (TSX: CRJ) (NYSE Amex: CGR) ("Claude" or the "Company") announced today that the new Santoy 8 Gold Mine has achieved commercial production at the Seabee Gold Operation in north eastern Saskatchewan, Canada. The Santoy 8 Mine is a satellite deposit located approximately 14 kilometres (9 miles) east of the Seabee Mine and Mill and is accessible by an all weather road. This accomplishment is considered a major milestone for the Company in 2011.
Neil McMillan, President and CEO stated, "The Santoy 8 Gold Mine represents a real opportunity for the Seabee Operation to grow its production profile. The growth in production and the expected decrease in unit cash costs from having the Santoy 8 Gold Mine, provides for higher net earnings and working capital to expand and grow the Company. The Santoy 8 mine is already larger than the Seabee ore body was 20 years ago and we expect to mine from this deposit for many years to come."
Over the life of mine plan the Company anticipates the Santoy 8 mine to provide up to 50 percent of the overall mill feed. The Company will continue to explore and delineate mineralization at depth and along strike.
