Replay transcript excerpt

Speaker 1: Hello everyone and welcome to today's event, Technology and Mining, hosted by 6. Today we'll be talking to these gentlemen about innovative technologies, current and future role in the mining space. Speaker 1: Alan, Ali, my apologies from Ion Energy might pop in, so don't be surprised there if he comes in. But this is more of a broad discussion and I encourage you to ask questions in the Q&A tab on the right hand side of your screen. Speaker 1: That being said, just keep the questions related to the conversation at hand. If you have company-specific Speaker 1: questions, please just state them in the chat that you would like to speak with management, and I'll be more than happy to help facilitate that. Speaker 1: So to get the discussion started today, gentlemen, why don't we just briefly describe the specific technologies your company is currently exploring or implementing that is significant to your story. I'm going to start with you, Alan. Speaker 2: Good morning, Kyle. Good morning, Julian. Good morning, everybody. Speaker 2: Yeah, Speaker 2: At Chesapeake, we are developing or Speaker 2: implementing, plan to implement a technology Speaker 2: that allows us to heap leach sulphides Speaker 2: in an alkali environment Speaker 2: and oxidise them so that we can treat sulphide refractory Gold ores. Speaker 2: The concepts have been borrowed from the Copper industry. The Copper industry has been leaching sulphides in a heap leach environment for over 30 years. Speaker 2: There are a few Speaker 2: tank-based Speaker 2: leaches in the Gold sector as well with similar chemistries. So we know it works Speaker 2: in a very fine basis. But we'll be 1 of the 1st Speaker 2: to do this in a heap leach environment. And Speaker 2: that has multiple advantages. Speak...
