Download project 007 news1/5/2024 ![]() ![]() The mineralization is naturally buffered and low in deleterious elements. Gold is highly recoverable by various processing methods. Now we can attest confidently and quantitatively to its positive metallurgical properties as well. "The gold system at Valley has already demonstrated considerable scale, consistency in strong gold grades, and a simple near-surface geometry favourable to mining. ![]() ![]() "These positive initial metallurgical results mark an important milestone in the advancement and de-risking of our Rogue Project's Valley discovery," said Scott Berdahl, CEO & Director of Snowline. Yellow bars indicate proportion of gold in particles >0.106 mm in size (left axis), an indicator for proportion of gravity recoverable gold. Figure 1 - Gold recovery rates by bottle roll cyanidation (red, left axis), carbon-in-leach (blue, left axis) and non-optimized floatation (green, left axis) across 10 composite drill core samples sorted by head grade (black, labelled with grams per tonne gold, right axis). The results demonstrate that mineralization at Valley is non-refractory and highlight the applicability of multiple processing techniques as options for further consideration. Gold recovery from test work was favourable varying from 81% to 99% across a range of head grades, material size and metallurgical approach (Figure 1). Ten composite drill core samples representing various locations and grades within the Valley gold system were subject to bottle roll cyanidation, carbon-in-leach (CIL) and preliminary flotation amenability testing. (TSX-V:SGD)(OTCQB:SNWGF) (the " Company" or " Snowline") is pleased to announce results from initial, first-pass metallurgical testing of gold mineralization from the Valley discovery on its Rogue Project, Yukon Territory, Canada. VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / J/ SNOWLINE GOLD CORP. Results open the door to multiple future processing options for Valley mineralization.Strong buffering effect and low concentrations of deleterious elements carry positive implications for environmental aspects of processing, reclamation and closure.Average gold recovery from non-optimized methods ranges from 87.6% (average bottle roll cyanidation) to 95.7% (average carbon-in-leach).High gold recovery realized with conventional processing techniques demonstrates the non-refractory nature of gold mineralization at Valley. ![]()
