G'Day rodroc 111, OGX should be processing 10 ton of tails & 10 tonne of High Grade
through 3d party that has CIL circuit -these will be long awaited clarifications .
We will soon know factual information-absolute Grams per tonne Gold recovered
from the high grade Intermediate zone .
We will soon know factual information regarding what a 10 tonne parcel of tailing
through independent processing with CIL circuit returns.
These two numbers will dictate/ highlight -future direction .
If numbers are good in tailing-Then the Gold was always their & i don't give a f about
the blame game the reality is only 2 g p/t historical average or there about recovered ,
my historical thoughts were a very high percentage of processed gold was going to
tailing.
This was supported by the plants state ATT, gold traps that were accessible, lack of liberation through a finer grind not being achieved, dilution while mining during extraction -lack of good operational know how with mining & processing & No CIL circuit -though it was thought not to be needed due to what they believed to be primarily Oxide ore being mined with little sulphide & a lower head grade than now apparently.
So we will see what sort of gold as percentage went to tails as if its what was reported through 5 x one tonne samples at 9.7 g p/t or higher then clearly historical reported
actual feed grades were wrong & were actually much higher as clearly 9.7 g p/t
in tails is some 400% higher than the average reported feed grade !
who cares now right well i do !
I care because it will mean the Gold is their in the mine if the gold is their it can be
extracted, clearly it can't if its not .
It would mean their is significant value in the tailing 38,000 t reported or their about
times X =$$$$$$$$$ ?
NEED CLARIFICATION -A third party ten tonne Re-processed tailing sample through a
processing facility with a CIL circuit will do this-safe to say should achieve 90% -97 % recovery.
One way or another we will soon find out .
High grade 10 t assessment-we've been informed the intermediate zone is a
much higher grade Gold zone as the veins have as thought they would- thickened
as they excavate deeper this should lead to much higher recovery -due to a higher
volumes that should result in less dilution & higher grades well that should be the kicker
we need.
Yet to be clarified with current mining /processing & recovery through decent
gold pours resulting in a significant upswing in gold recovery & revenue generation
that is needed .
So will be watching results closely for the 10 tonne of high grade thats being or
soon to be independently processed through a CIL capable circuit , this will clarify
the high grade zone currently being accessed & processed at Cascavel now future
actual potential gold recovery.
Both these results are ultra important.

hi salt , I agree that a cil plant may be needed , do you or anyone have an idea of what it would set us back to install . would be perfect to fund from gold recoveries and sales but may need the cil to get gold recoveries and sales . imo if needed stop exploring for a minute and use those funds if possible . just putting it out there , cheers robbo.
