Processing

The process facility has been designed for a nameplate capacity of 9,000 tonnes of mineralization per day. A conventional silver/gold processing plant flowsheet was developed that incorporates crushing, grinding, gravity concentration, an intense cyanidation circuit, cyanide leaching with oxygen addition, counter current decantation washing thickeners and Merrill-Crowe precious metal recovery from solution followed by on-site smelting to doré bars.

Average Annual Production

13.4 Moz of silver equivalent (7.6 Moz silver and 72 koz gold) annual average production over the Life-of-Mine.

Resources & Reserves

199 Moz Silver & 1.7 Moz Gold (350 Moz Silver Eq)
