Bolivia continues to be the focus of Franklin Mining's attentions and the mining company has announced that it is in the process of juggling "multiple projects".

Liaison with Centromin engineers is ongoing at the Pulacayo processing plant as Franlkin Mining looks to review and put in place its "installation, procurement and production timelines".

Once this processing plant is up and running, Franklin Mining predicts that it will be able to process at least 200 tonnes a day initially and it is to be finished under the jurisdiction of Walter Lesteros.

The site at Cerro Rico de Potosi in Bolivia is to be visited by the company's staff as well as chief executive officer Jaime Melgarejo on May 25th where they will assemble in order to assess production studies recently undertaken.

Franklin Mining began its foray into gold mining back in the mid-1800s and is currently attempting to open three new offices in Santa Cruz, in La Paz and in Potosi.
