Crestaurum Historical Metallurgy
1985 Program: 44 samples of drill core rejects from 7 drill holes – we have
re-sampled all 7 holes and verified the grades
Composite A
•Drill grade of 0.357 oz/ton (cut to 1 oz/t as per resource estimate)
•Drill grade un-cut 0.627 oz/ton
•Calculated metallurgical head grade 0.72 oz/ton
Composite B
•Drill grade of 0.297 oz/ton (cut to 1 oz/t as per resource estimate)
•Drill grade un-cut 0.397 oz/ton
•Calculated metallurgical head grade 0.454 oz/ton
Findings (Quoted from Report*)
Using Direct Cyanide (Free Milling Method)
“Both composites were determined to be free milling and best suited for a straight
cyanidation process…expected to yield recoveries in the order of 95%.”
Using Refractory Recovery Method (Roasting) – The process used at Giant Mine
“Very low recoveries of about 44-62% were obtained…an alternative method of
processing would be necessary.”
