Despite steady (although limited) gold production - including an estimated 3,842 ounces in fiscal 2013 - Bralorne remains in the exploration and evaluation stage. Avino Silver & Gold Mines acquired Bralorne Gold Mines in October of 2014, giving Avino full control and ownership of the Bralorne mine. Avino is implementing a multi-stage, multi-year plan to increase gold resources, expand the mine's operating capacity and realize a much more efficient operation that will contribute significantly to Avino's overall production in the coming years. The Bralorne gold camp represents one of Canada's most prolific mining operations. From 1928 to 1971, the Bralorne and nearby Pioneer and King mines produced 4.15 million ounces of gold from 7.9 million tons of ore. Average head grades exceeded half-an-ounce per ton. Historically the operations mined high-grade material delineated by driving drifts on the veins at successively lower levels. Minimal exploration work was conducted beyond the known veins, and the areas between the historical mines were left undeveloped. In recent years, exploration of these undeveloped gaps led to new high-grade discoveries. As a result, the mine was re-furbished and re-opened in its current trial stage. In 2010, the mine began trial production at 100 tons per day and has operated at that rate consistently to this date. In 2014, Avino acquired Bralorne Gold Mines Ltd. giving Avino full control and ownership of the Bralorne mine. Follow us: © 2014 Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd.
