LONDON (Alliance News) - Condor Gold PLC said Friday that it has been granted the Las Cruces concession, a 25 year exploration and exploitation permit covering an area of 142.6 square kilometres, by the Ministry of Energy & Mines of Nicaragua.
The permit was awarded to the exploration company's Nicaraguan subsidiary Condor SA. It is adjacent to, and south-east of, the company's La India Project and expands the project package by 45% to 455.6 square kilometres.

The La India Project now comprises 11 adjacent and contiguous exploration and exploitation concessions, acquired by the company over 12 years.
