Boroo Gold Mining
The Boroo deposit was discovered in 1910. Industrial mining began shortly thereafter but ended in the 1920s when the facilities were destroyed in a civil war. Mining resumed in 1933 and a refinery was installed in 1942 that treated gold from the mining of a number of near-surface quartz veins. There are no production records from this time and events in the ensuing years until the mid-1960s remain undocumented.
The mineral reserves and resources were most recently estimated by Geostat Systems International in July 2003 in accordance with Canadian standards. Geostat's estimated probable reserves of 10.3 million tonnes averaging 3.52 grams per tonne of gold or 1.16 million ounces of gold. Construction began on the site in July 2002 and was completed by late 2003 when commissioning of the mill began. Start-up of commercial production began on March 1, 2004 by Cameco Gold Inc/ Boroo Gold Company Mongolia.
