TORONTO, April 2, 2012 /CNW/ - Mandalay Resources Corporation ('Mandalay' or the 'Company')
is pleased to announce that the Company has resumed shipping concentrate from its Cerro Bayo silver-gold project in Chile (please refer to Mandalay news releases dated February 24, 2012 and March 9, 2012). Mandalay expects to catch up on all delayed shipments in the second quarter of 2012.
The Company has also made an arrangement to make future shipments from an alternate port facility of Lirguen, Chile. This port near Concepcion, Chile was not affected by the protests in Aysen Province and gives the Company a secondary route for future shipments.
