With additional ore from Lamaque, the mill will operate at 90% of its 1,200-t/d capacity. Monarques has received permission from the province to increase the throughput at Camflo to 1,600 t/d. Monarques operates the Beaufor mine and the Camflo and Beacon mills. The company is also advancing the Croinor gold project in Quebec and the Wasamac gold property in Ontario.
