Overall Gold Recovery Expected To Exceed 90% With Up To 40% Recoverable By Gravity
West African gold explorer Azumah Resources Limited (ASX: AZM) is pleased to announce results from the first stage of metallurgical test work being conducted on samples of primary (unoxidised) mineralisation from the Kunche resource at the Company’s 100% owned Wa- Lawra Gold Project in Ghana.
Initial metallurgical results indicate that recoveries of over 90% should be obtained on typical resource-grade Kunche mineralisation using conventional gold processing technology comprising gravity separation followed by carbon-in-leach (“CIL”).
Importantly, between 25% and 40% of the gold is likely to be recoverable using a preliminary gravity separation phase, which should impact favourably on bottom line operating costs.
Been told by management that the Bepkong JORC is on schedule, which means this week.
