Franklin Mining, Inc. (FMNJ) (Frankfurt:FMJ.F) CEO William Petty recently announced the company has received funding necessary to resume operations at the Escala Mine effective May 1, 2009.
Phase I operations at Franklin's Escala Mine joint-venture are set to be underway at the end of this week including the delivery of stockpiled ore for processing at nearby plants. Revenues recorded in 2009's first quarter will be minimal; however, the processing of stockpiled material will result in revenue being recorded in 2009's second quarter.
Franklin's first three tonne shipment from the Turiri mine has been prepared and is awaiting shipment. "As I said before, the response to our Turiri announcement has been positive. We have received inquiries wanting to purchase antimony and are excited by this new opportunity," said Mr. Petty.
