MARLIN

PROJECT SUMMARY

The Marlin mine has both conventional open pit mining and underground mining operations. 

The Marlin deposit was discovered in western Guatemala through regional grass-roots exploration in 1998 by Montana Exploradora, S.A. and was later purchased by Francisco Gold Corporation in 2000.  In 2002 Francisco Gold Corporation merged into Glamis and effectively transferred control of the Marlin mine to Glamis.  Construction of the project commenced in early 2004 after the Guatemalan government issued the necessary environmental permits and licenses.
