Minco Silver Corporation (the "Company" or "Minco Silver")(TSX: MSV)is pleased to announce the commencement of metallurgical testing on its Fuwan Silver project located in Guangdong Province, China. Four hundred kilograms of representative material has been sent to the PRA Kunming laboratory a division of PRA (Process Research Associated Ltd) headquartered in Richmond, BC, Canada. PRA is an independent and internationally recognized industrial research laboratory specializing in metallurgical and environmental process development from bench scale tests to pilot plant demonstrations. Their work carries the high level of credibility required for feasibility studies and regulatory submissions in accordance with National Instrument 43-101. As part of the Company's Phase IV exploration program currently underway, core material representative of the mineralization at the Fuwan Silver Deposit has arrived at the PRA facility in Kunming. Test work will include crushing and grinding indices with processing options to include gravity separation, flotation, and cyanidation.
