Construction\nof the heap leach pad system is targeted to be completed and\noperational by December 2021, with first production gold pour in Q1\n2022.\n \n \n The Company, along with its contractors, are currently preparing the\nprincipal production area, grubbing, and establishing pit limits to\nthe plan. The focus will be on digging out the pregnant solution\npond, constructing pond berms, and compacting to engineering\nspecifications in preparation for installation of the leach\npad liner and the processing facility.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click Image To View Full Size\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Click Image To View Full Size\n \n \n \n \n \n Heap leaching\n \n \n is an industrial mineral processing\nmethod used to extract precious metals and other compounds\nfrom ore using a series of chemical reactions that absorb specific\nminerals and re-separate them after their division from other earth\nmaterials. Heap leaching is the most economical and environmentally\nefficient method of processing lower grade mined ore. Heap leaching\nachieves these processing efficiencies by placing finely crushed ore\non a liner, then adding reagents via drip systems to the ore. As\ncompared to conventional processing methods such as flotation,\nagitation, or vat leaching, heap leaching is widely used in modern\nlarge-scale mining operations to produce the desired concentrates at a\nlower cost for lower grade ores.\n \n \n Terry Filbert, Presid...
