Orvana branching out to Argentina

Gold/copper/silver miner Orvana, which operates mines in northern Spain and Bolivia, has received a positive preliminary economic assessment (PEA) report for what could be its third operation – Taguas, in Argentina.

The TSX-listed miner in May bought the property, about 25 km north of Barrick Gold’s Veladero mining operations and on Friday published the results of the PEA.
