Astur Gold Corp. is pleased to announce that it has been successful in a bidding process for the La Codosera project, consisting of five mining concessions totaling 1,851 hectares (approximately 20km2) in the province of Badajoz, Extremadura Autonomous Region, Western Spain. La Codosera is only 40km away from the provincial capital of Badajoz, and 80km from the capital of the Extremadura Autonomous Region, Merida. The Extremadura region is known as a leader in mining industry support in Spain. The permits are for the concessions of Afra, Buenavista, Brena, Monteviejo, and Sierra Lugar. Despite available historical data, the area has been insufficiently explored and may represent significant potential for gold mineralization in Spain.

Cary Pinkowski, CEO & Director commented, “We are pleased to have won the tender process for this land package in Badajoz, Spain. The historical data indicates that there is excellent gold exploration potential. By adding these exploration assets, in concert with the development of our flagship Salave deposit in Northern Spain, we are leveraging our Spanish exploration expertise and human resources.”[url=http://www.crushersouthafrica.com/grinding-mill/ball-mill-for-cement-grinding-in-south-africa.html]Ball Mill for Cement Grinding[/url]
