Anglo Asian Mining plc ("Anglo Asian" or the "Company"), the AIM-listed gold, copper and silver producer focused on Azerbaijan, is pleased to announce that flotation processing has now resumed normal production at Gedabek, with ore being processed from both stockpiles and freshly mined ore from the main open pit.
