•Test results indicate nanofiltration could reduce lime consumption by up to 87.2%
•Average cyanide consumption was 28.0% lower in nanofiltered water
•Results support potential to achieve significant savings in operating costs
The results of this program have now been received and are consistent with the outcome of the preliminary test-work.
Doing the maths from the previous results (of 64% lower for lime, 26% lower for Cyanide) it worked out a saving of $65/oz. These results are even better!
This gives NGF a face saving excuse to up the offer should they want to, and as their TO has a feeling of grinding to a halt, they need to. However upping it a cent or two will most likely only gain them another 4 or 5% imo as independantly BAB was assessed at 14cents.
Drill results in a couple of weeks as well, something else to look forward to.
