Description
• Project situated in a highly prolific belt for world-class deposits. Advanced exploration property with an engineering program being developed. Excellent infrastructure, 25 Kms from Veladero mine. • The mining method proposed for the Property in the PEA is conventional truck and shovel open pit mining. The proposed recovery process will be crushing of mineralized material at a rate of 15,000 tpd, stacking in 10 m lifts on a permanent heap leach and gold and silver recovery from the heap leach pregnant solution in a Merrill-Crowe recovery plant where gold and silver will be precipitated to produce doré gold bars. • More than 63,000m of drilling carried out on the Property • Repositioning strategy: Orvana had been focused on the oxides portion of the property. Now potentially including sulphides resources, plus deep copper-gold porphyry opportunities • A targeted exploration program has been initiated to evaluate the property's full potential and to inform the ongoing strategic repositioning of the Taguas Project • Results will be evaluated to determine the strategic positioning of the property and to define the next steps
