Non-flow-through financing. Newrange Gold closed the first tranche of a private placement and received gross proceeds of ~C$408,100 with the issuance of 5,830,332 non-flow-through (NFT) units at a price of C$0.07 per unit. Management and insiders acquired a total of 1,615,000 units. Each NFT unit is comprised of one common share and one-half share purchase warrant. Each whole NFT warrant may be exercised to purchase one common share for C$0.12 at any time until February 23, 2024. A second and final tranche to raise gross proceeds of ~C$100,000 is expected to close in approximately two weeks. Proceeds will be used, among other things, to fund surface exploration at the Pamlico project in Nevada. Flow-through financing. Newrange expects to raise up to C$1,500,000 with the issuance of up to 15 million flow-through (FT) units at a price of C$0.10 per FT unit in a private placement. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one-half share purchase warrant. Each whole FT warrant may be exercised to purchase one common share at a price of C$0.12 at any time until February 23, 2024. Proceeds will be used to fund exploration and drilling at the company's Argosy Gold Mine in the Red Lake Mining Division of Ontario, Canada. The FT financing is also expected to close in approximately two weeks. Drilling at North Birch and Argosy. Newrange recently started drilling at the North Birch project in the Birch-Uchi Greenstone Belt in northwestern Ontario, Canada with approximately 2,000 meters of drilling planned. Once completed, the rig will move to the nearby past-producing Argosy gold mine and test the depth of known veins below historic mine workings and the continuity of other veins. Rating is Outperform. We had already assumed a financing in our financial model based on our cash flow forecast and will update our estimates following closing of the financings. We think 2022 will be an eventful year for Newrange as activity accelerates at both North Birch and Argosy. We believe the drilling program could reveal the significant discovery potential at North Birch and unrealized potential remaining at Argosy. We think additional drilling at the company's Pamlico project in Nevada could begin during the second quarter of 2022. Read More >>

Newrange and Great Panther Terminate Agreement to Acquire Coricancha Mine in Peru
(TheNewswire)
TSXV:NRG ) (OTC :NRGOF ) ( Frankfurt:X6C) Newrange Gold Corp. (" Newrange " or the " Company ") announces that it has signed a Mutual Termination Agreement with Great Panther Mining Limited ("Great Panther"), terminating the Share Purchase Agreement to acquire the Coricancha Gold-Silver-Copper-Lead-Zinc Mine in Central Peru
"We are deeply disappointed to have arrived at this outcome," stated Robert Archer, President and CEO of Newrange. "We have been working on this acquisition since March and believe strongly in the potential of the Coricancha Mine. However, the current market for mining stocks, one of the worst in decades, has created a serious impediment to financing, especially for new acquisitions. While we attempted to gain an extension to the closing date, the intransigence of Great Panther's creditors has, regrettably, made that impossible."
As a result of the termination of this acquisition, the Company will not be proceeding with the proposed financing, share consolidation and name change at this time and it is anticipated that trading in the Company's shares will resume within days.
About Newrange Gold Corp.
Newrange is currently focused on district-scale exploration for precious metals in the prolific Red Lake District of northwestern Ontario. The past-producing high-grade Argosy Gold Mine is open to depth, while the adjacent North Birch Project offers additional blue-sky potential.

Newrange Arranges Non-Brokered Private Placement for $10,080,000
(TheNewswire)
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA TheNewswire - November 7, 2022 (TSXV:NRG ) (OTC :NRGOF ) ( Frankfurt:X6C) Newrange Gold Corp. (" Newrange " or the " Company ") announces that it is arranging a non-brokered private placement to raise gross proceeds of up to $10,080,000 (the "Offering"). The placement is anticipated to close on or about November 25, 2022 following a ‘one new for six old' share consolidation (to be voted upon by shareholders at the AGSM on November 23, 2022) and, as such, will be priced at the post consolidation share price of $0.18. The placement will consist of up to 56,000,000 units (the "Units") with each Unit comprising one common share ("Share") in the capital of the Company and one-half share purchase warrant ("Warrant"), whereby each whole Warrant shall be convertible into an additional Share at an exercise price of $0.27 for a period of 36 months from the date of issuance. The Company will have the right to seek an accelerated exercise of the Warrants if the price of the Shares trade in excess of C$0.40 for 10 consecutive trading days. All proceeds will be held by the Company in a separate account pending closing and will be released to the Company concurrently with the closing of the acquisition of the Coricancha Mine. If the closing does not occur by November 25, 2022, or such date to be mutually agreed upon, the proceeds will be returned to the investor without interest or deduction. A finder's fee of up to 7% in cash and 7% in warrants exercisable into Shares at $0.27 for a period of 36 months may also be paid.
The net proceeds raised from the Offering will be used for the acquisition of a 100% interest in the Coricancha Gold-Silver-Copper-Lead-Zinc ("Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn") Mine in Central Peru ("Coricancha"; see Newrange news releases of September 13 and October 26 , 2022), continued care and maintenance costs, exploration and development of the mine and general working capital.
All securities to be issued will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance and subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. The securities offered have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 , as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
Coricancha is a high-grade, narrow-vein, underground mine in the Central Polymetallic Belt of Peru. It is located 90 kilometres east of Lima on the Central Highway and comprises a 600 tonne per day processing plant, dry-stack tailings storage facility and all necessary surface and underground infrastructure. The mine was in production intermittently from 1906 – 2013 and has been on care-and-maintenance since then. The mine, plant and dry-stack tailings storage facility are in excellent shape and are fully permitted. Coricancha is located within a well-established mining district and local communities are fully supportive of the operation. Two of three community agreements are already in place, with the third only pending a final signature.
A Mineral Resource Estimate was filed for Coricancha with an effective date of December 20, 2017 1 that is considered by Newrange to be Historical in nature. The Company is not relying on these estimates as a qualified person on behalf of Newrange has not done sufficient work to classify them as current mineral resources. Newrange intends to conduct its own drilling to bring the resource estimate into compliance for the Company. The Historical Resource comprises total Measured and Indicated Resources of 752,759 tonnes at 5.8 grams per tonne ("g/t") Au, 200 g/t Ag, 0.53% Cu, 2.07% Pb and 3.26% Zn (999 g/t silver equivalent ounces 2 ("Ag Eq Oz")), for a contained 24.20 million Ag Eq Oz, and total Inferred Resources of 943,160 tonnes at 5.0 g/t Au, 209 g/t Ag, 0.64% Cu, 1.45% Pb and 3.25% Zn (934 g/t Ag Eq Oz) for a contained 28.36 million Ag Eq Oz. The Historical Resource Estimate and associated Preliminary Economic Assessment are available as a reference on SEDAR at www.sedar.ca .
There are more than twenty veins known in the Coricancha deposit with most past production having come from the Constancia and Wellington Veins, approximately 600 metres apart and parallel to one another. They have a known strike length of more than 1,500 metres and a vertical extent in excess of 1,000 metres. A third vein, Escondida, lies between, and appears to connect, the two and has seen minimal exploration, development or production yet shows excellent potential, particularly where it is exposed on the main haulage level at 3140 metres above sea level. A development drift on this level exposed the Escondida vein over several hundred metres of strike length and ended at a face assaying 429 g/t Ag, 7.17% Cu, 0.42 g/t Au, 0.37% Pb and 0.68% Zn over 2.1 metres. Newrange intends to initially focus on the Escondida vein with the intent to define a new, updated resource estimate and mine plan. At full production, it is estimated that Coricancha could produce approximately 3 million Ag Eq Oz per year.

Newrange Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire Coricancha Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn Mine in Peru
(TheNewswire)
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA TheNewswire - September 13, 2022 (TSXV:NRG ) (OTC :NRGOF ) ( Frankfurt:X6C) Newrange Gold Corp. (" Newrange " or the " Company ") announces that, on September 12, 2022, it signed a non-binding Letter of Intent with Great Panther Mining Limited ("Great Panther") to acquire a 100% interest in the Coricancha Gold-Silver-Copper-Lead-Zinc ("Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn") Mine in Central Peru ("Coricancha") . It is anticipated that a Definitive Agreement will be signed in the coming weeks.
Coricancha is a high-grade, narrow-vein, gold-silver-copper-lead-zinc underground mine in the Central Polymetallic Belt of Peru. It is located 90 kilometres east of Lima on the Central Highway and comprises a 600 tonne per day processing plant, dry-stack tailings storage facility and all necessary surface and underground infrastructure. The mine was in production intermittently from 1906 – 2013 and has been on care-and-maintenance since then but is in excellent shape and is fully permitted. It is located within a well-established mining district and local communities are fully supportive of the operation. Two of three community agreements are already in place, with the third only pending a final signature.
"I am very excited about the opportunity to acquire the Coricancha Mine," stated Robert Archer, President and CEO of Newrange. "I believe the project presents an exceptional opportunity to build a significant resource, develop the known veins towards production and further explore the property. Despite the long production history, there have only been 105 holes drilled on the property since 2010 and there is tremendous opportunity to extend the mine life and make new discoveries. In making this acquisition, Newrange is effectively following a well-established business model of bringing a past producing mine back into production, with the intent to supplement the future growth of the Company out of cash flow rather than straight equity."
A Mineral Resource Estimate was filed for Great Panther with an effective date of December 20, 2017 1 that is considered by Newrange to be Historical in nature. The Company is not relying on these estimates as a qualified person on behalf of Newrange has not done sufficient work to classify them as current mineral resources. Newrange intends to conduct its own drilling to bring the resource estimate into compliance for the Company. The Historical Resource comprises total Measured and Indicated Resources of 752,759 tonnes at 5.8 grams per tonne ("g/t") Au, 200 g/t Ag, 0.53% Cu, 2.07% Pb and 3.26% Zn (999 g/t silver equivalent ounces 2 ("Ag Eq Oz")), for a contained 24.20 million Ag Eq Oz, and total Inferred Resources of 943,160 tonnes at 5.0 g/t Au, 209 g/t Ag, 0.64% Cu, 1.45% Pb and 3.25% Zn (934 g/t Ag Eq Oz) for a contained 28.36 million Ag Eq Oz.

There is a general zonation from gold, silver and arsenic in the upper parts of the deposit towards copper and silver in the ‘lower' levels (the system has not been adequately tested below the 3140m level). Lead and zinc occur throughout the deposit in varying amounts.
In the Letter of Intent, the acquisition is contemplated to take place via a share purchase agreement whereby Newrange will purchase all of the shares of Great Panther Peru Holdings Ltd. and Great Panther Silver Peru, S.A.C., both wholly owned subsidiaries of Great Panther and the owners of the Coricancha Mine. Terms of the acquisition call for Newrange to make a single cash payment of US$750,000 to Great Panther upon closing and the transaction will be on an "as-is" basis. Being a cash-only transaction, shareholder approval will not be required. As the acquisition will be subject to financing, the Company is contemplating a ‘one new for six old' share consolidation and subsequent name change to be effective upon closing. The transaction will constitute a Fundamental Acquisition for Newrange and will be an arm's length transaction, further details of which will be announced upon signing of the Definitive Agreement. Similarly, details of the financing, share consolidation and name change, should they occur, will be announced in due course, all of which will be subject to TSXV approval.

Newrange Provides Exploration Update
(TheNewswire)
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA TheNewswire - May 17, 2022 (TSXV:NRG ) (OTC :NRGOF ) ( Frankfurt:X6C) Newrange Gold Corp. (" Newrange " or the " Company ") is pleased to provide an update on its exploration projects in the Red Lake District of Ontario and the Walker Lane Trend of Nevada.
North Birch Project
At the North Birch Project, 110 kilometres northeast of Red Lake, two diamond drill holes were completed for a total of 723 metres. Although the winter drill program was expected to include additional holes, highly variable weather forced a late start and early conclusion. The holes were drilled to test a folded sequence of Iron Formation ("IF") and volcanic rocks in a structural setting similar to the Musselwhite Mine, 190 kilometres to the northeast (see Figure 1 below).
Figure 1: North Birch Drill Holes in ‘Fold Nose' interpreted from airborne magnetics
As previously reported (Newrange Press Release of March 9, 2022), hole NB22001 intersected a deformation zone more than 100 metres wide that had been interpreted from geophysics and LiDAR surveys. The hole collared in massive to pillowed Fe-tholeiitic basalt and shearing started approximately 200 metres downhole, becoming more intense with depth. The basalt becomes increasingly magnetic downhole and laminated IF first appears at 421 metres. Folding is apparent in the IF and both basalt and IF display moderate to intense carbonate alteration and local quartz veining. Pyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization occur as disseminations, stringers and, locally, as ‘clots' within quartz veins and veinlets.
Gold and copper assays increased downhole as shearing intensified. Values were geochemically anomalous, with high values of 0.25 g/t Au and 363 ppm Cu, and the relationship of gold and copper to shearing, quartz-carbonate alteration and pyrite-pyrrhotite mineralization are all encouraging signs considering that this horizon has never been drilled before. Not only does Newrange control about eight kilometres of this horizon but this first hole stopped in highly sheared IF at 460 metres (vertical depth of approximately 320 metres) as the drill had reached its depth limitation. Follow up holes will be drilled in the opposite direction due to the local topography and the sub-vertical dip of the zone.
Hole NB22002 was drilled 800 metres along stratigraphic strike to the northwest to test coincident magnetic and Induced Polarization anomalies. The hole was drilled to 263 metres at -50°, in massive to pillowed basalt and mafic tuff. While the anomalies were explained by the presence of chalcopyrite- pyrrhotite stringers, which returned no significant gold assays, a zone of strong biotite alteration with highly anomalous trace element geochemistry was intersected just below this zone, indicating strong hydrothermal activity. The deformation zone and IF intersected in the first hole were not seen in the second hole indicating that this structure does not appear to follow exactly along the main limb of the fold but likely trends closer to the central axis.
"We are very encouraged by the presence of strong deformation, alteration, and anomalous geochemistry in the initial holes at North Birch," stated Robert Archer, President & CEO of Newrange. "Considering that this horizon is not exposed at surface and has never been drill-tested before, these are all positive indicators that are common to gold systems elsewhere in the Uchi Subprovince. We look forward to follow-up drilling to better understand the overall setting."
Argosy Gold Mine Project
Due to the above-described weather challenges and resulting shortened drilling season, no holes were drilled on the adjacent Argosy Gold Mine Project this past winter. However, the first drill sites have been prepared and the initial holes will test both the down-dip extension of gold mineralization below the historic mine workings and in parallel, un-mined veins closer to surface.
Pamlico Project
Management has conducted an in-depth analysis of results to date on the Pamlico Property in Nevada, including an in-house (not NI43-101 compliant) assessment of the Merritt Decline Area and other exploration targets on the property. Following a comprehensive strategic review, which appropriately considered current market conditions and high holding costs, the Board of Directors has concluded that the continuation of the project is no longer in the best interest of shareholders and has terminated the option agreement.
Potential Acquisitions
As part of the aforementioned strategic review, Newrange is actively reviewing several potential acquisition targets in order to maximize shareholder value. The Board is committed to finding a new flagship project that will have the potential to provide significant upside. Discussions are ongoing in this regard and the Company will inform shareholders of any progress in a timely manner.
QA/QC
All drill core was logged, and samples assayed for gold and multi-elements by AGAT Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The Company's QA/QC sample protocol consisted of the collection of samples no less than 0.10 metres and no greater than 1.5 metres in core length over the mineralized portions of the drill hole. Envelopes to mineralized zones were commonly sampled as well. The drill core was cut in half with a diamond saw, with half of the core placed in sample bags and the other half secured in the core box on site. One commercially prepared standard or blank was inserted in series every ten samples (10% of the samples). Samples were then transported by company personnel directly to the AGAT Labs facility. AGAT received, recorded and tracked all samples. Gold analyses were obtained by industry standard fire assay with ICP finish using a 30 gram aliquot. For samples returning values greater than 10 g/t gold, follow-up fire assay with a gravimetric finish is completed. Samples were also analyzed for 35 element trace and major element ICP-OES. AGAT Laboratories is an ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IES 17025:2017 accredited lab for the preparation and analyses performed on the Newrange samples.

- Successful $80.0 million capital raising completed, comprising a $69.0 million Placement and Accelerated Institutional Entitlement Offer and an $11.0 million Retail Entitlement Offer.
- Mr Hansjoerg Plaggemars resigned as a Non-Executive Director, effective 30 June 2024.
- Mr David Coyne was re-appointed as an Executive Director and Joint Company Secretary, effective 1 August 2024.
- Total cash and listed company investments at 30 June 2024 of $93.8 million.
Spartan Managing Director and CEO, Mr Simon Lawson, commented:
“It’s been another huge quarter for Spartan, with a new high-grade gold discovery at the Pepper Prospect, further outstanding intercepts from across our existing deposits – including our deepest project assay to date from Never Never, which graded almost eight grams per tonne more than 1km down-hole – and a landmark $80 million capital raising that will enable us to substantially ramp-up exploration and development activities.
“Our drilling throughout the Quarter has continued to reinforce our ability to deliver high-grade ounces in front of Dalgaranga’s existing infrastructure.
“The new Pepper discovery has provided plenty of excitement for our geology team, delivering a new zone of high-grade Never Never-style mineralisation in between the existing Never Never and Four Pillars deposits, with the discovery hole returning an intercept of 17.52m grading 15.86g/t gold, including 9.22m grading 27.89g/t.
“Since first announcing the discovery in mid-April, we have had a drill rig continuously turning at Pepper, with the Company on-track to deliver a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the deposit as part of our scheduled mid-year Resource update for Dalgaranga. This Resource update will also include inaugural estimates for the Four Pillars and West Winds deposits, as well as updates for both Never Never and Sly Fox.
“All of the drill results reported during the Quarter were returned from steeply-dipping deposits along a single, 800m-long stratigraphic horizon, with planning now complete for the development of an exploration drill drive to provide underground drill platforms to better target this zone. We expect to be in a position to commence construction of this drill drive during the September Quarter, positioning the Company for plenty of exciting drilling in the second half of the year.
“Development of this drill drive, as well as our ongoing exploration and development programs, will be underpinned by the highly successful $80 million capital raising completed during the Quarter. This raising was well supported both by institutional and retail investors and I would like to sincerely thank all shareholders who participated.”

Rich Checkan: Gold Still "Dirt Cheap" at All-time Highs, Buy Now if You Haven't
The gold price remains historically high, but for Rich Checkan, president and CEO of Asset Strategies International, the yellow metal is still "dirt cheap."
He urged those who haven't made allocations to gold and silver yet to consider buying now.
"We're heading into the doldrums, we're kind of consolidating here. China's off the market ... so the prices are low here — at all time-highs, the prices are low. And because western investors aren't buying coins and bars, the premiums are low," Checkan explained. "You've got the perfect storm here of low prices, low premiums — take advantage of it."

Dana Samuelson: Never More Bullish on Gold, Silver Can Easily Break Higher
Dana Samuelson of American Gold Exchange discussed his outlook for gold and silver prices in both the short and long term, and mentioned which physical products he recommends investors look into.
"I wouldn't be surprised to see silver make a US$5 or US$10 move from here very quickly, especially if gold can break a little above its all-time high," he explained on the sidelines of the the Rule Symposium.
He was speaking a week before gold did exactly that. Samuelson added, "If gold makes a run at a new high and gets into the US$2,500 (per ounce) range, I think silver could be US$45, US$50 (per ounce) very quickly."

Development Contract for Underground Exploration Drill Drive Awarded to Barminco
New drill drive to provide underground drill platforms to in-fill and extend existing deposits and identify new high-grade shoots
Spartan Resources Limited (“Spartan” or “Company”) (ASX: SPR) is pleased to announce that it has awarded the contract for the development of an underground exploration drill drive at its 100%-owned Dalgaranga Gold Project (“DGP”), located in the Murchison region of Western Australia, to specialist underground mining services contractor, Barminco Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the ASX-listed global diversified mining services company Perenti Limited (ASX: PRN).
Highlights:
- Development contract for the underground exploration drill drive at the Dalgaranga Gold Project awarded to Barminco Limited.
- The contract, which is valued at ~$18.3 million, provides for 2,350m of development to deliver twin decline access for the establishment of underground drilling platforms to in- fill and extend mineralisation within the Never Never, Pepper, Four Pillars and West Winds areas.
- The drill drive has also been designed to support future mine production activities.
- All regulatory mining approvals are now in place and all major support services have been engaged to facilitate the commencement of construction in the current quarter.
- Surface exploration drilling at Dalgaranga will shortly re-commence, with rigs arriving on site later this month.

The contract, which is valued at ~$18.3 million including an allowance for fuel and contingencies, provides for 2,350m of development to deliver twin decline access for the establishment of underground drilling platforms to in-fill and extend mineralisation across the Never Never, Pepper, Four Pillars and West Winds deposits.
All of these steeply-plunging, high-grade gold zones are located along a single 800m-long, semi- continuously mineralised north-south stratigraphic horizon (see Figure 1). The exploration drill drive has been designed to run parallel and adjacent to this horizon to provide underground drill platforms to more effectively define these existing deposits and prospects, as well as explore for further high-grade shoots and provide critical underground infrastructure as Spartan develops its future mine plan.
Construction of the drill drive is on-track to commence in the September Quarter, with all regulatory mining approvals and support services in place. In addition, the Company has established an experienced on- site project team to manage and oversee the development and construction process. Establishment of the drill drive, and an initial underground drilling programme, is fully funded from the Company’s existing cash reserves.
Management Comment
Spartan Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Simon Lawson, said: “We are delighted to have Barminco on board to complete the construction of this new drill drive, which represents a very exciting initiative that will enable us to drill from platforms located right alongside our high-grade deposits and targets. This will provide for cheaper, more accurate and quicker drilling to continue to accelerate our Resource growth and conversion to Ore Reserves.
“All of the high-grade deposits and prospects discovered at Dalgaranga over the past two years remain open at depth – with mineralisation at the Never Never deposit now defined to beyond 1km below surface – and we’re very excited to get the underground rigs in place to help determine just how deep this high- grade mineralisation extends.
“Importantly, the drill drive is being constructed using the same dimensions as a standard underground mine development, ensuring it can be incorporated into our infrastructure planning for the future re- commencement of mining operations.
“Construction of the drill drive is set to kick-off later this Quarter and is expected to take approximately 10 months to complete. In addition, we will also shortly re-commence surface drilling programs, targeting the Pepper, Four Pillars, West Winds and other near-surface anomalies, ensuring plenty of exciting news- flow for shareholders in the months ahead.”

Boundiali Preliminary Metallurgical Test Work Delivers Gold Recoveries up to 99%
Highlights
- Excellent Gold Recovery: Bottle roll tests on 50 samples from BDT1 confirm gold mineralization is free milling, with cyanide leach recoveries consistently exceeding 93% for samples grading 0.25 g/t gold or higher
- Oxidized Ore Excels: Oxide samples exhibit exceptional gold recoveries, averaging 97.5% and reaching a maximum of 99%
- Consistent with Expectations: The metallurgical response aligns with typical free-milling ores found in similar deposits
- Further Testing Planned: Additional metallurgical work will be conducted to establish and optimise processing flowsheets
- Well-Funded: Aurum received firm commitments for a $17M Share Placement in June with Shareholders to vote on Tranche 2 on 6 August 2024
Aurum’s Managing Director Dr. Caigen Wang said: “Preliminary gold recoveries meet our expectations and confirm gold at BDT1 is highly amenable to standard cyanide leaching. While further work is needed, these are very encouraging results.
We are well funded following a recent Share Placement and Share Purchase Plan and rapidly expanding our drilling program at Boundiali. We will have six Aurum-owned diamond rigs running from the end of August as we target delivery of an initial JORC resource for Boundiali by the end of 2024.”
Metallurgical Test Work Summary
Preliminary test work involved 50 coarse reject samples from various depths, lithologies, and oxidation states at BDT1. Samples were prepared and analysed by Intertek laboratories in Ghana.
These samples were selected from a representative range of gold grades (likely to be encountered in an open pit), lithologies and oxidation states. Samples were selected from diamond core holes drilled by Aurum at BDT1 this year and cover a subset of that prospect over a volume bounded by 300m (east to west) and 550m (south to north) and down to 328m below surface (average depth of 106m below surface).
Preparation and analysis of the samples was undertaken by Intertek laboratories in Ghana. Samples were pulverized to 85% passing 75-micron (85% of the particles are smaller than 75 microns) and then subjected to a bottle roll cyanide leach for 24 hours using the cyanide (CL1000/AA) technique with an analysis on the leach liquor to measure the leach gold grade. The residue was then filtered and analysed by 50g fire assay (FA50T/AA) to show the remaining gold (tail grade). The sum of the leach grade and the tail grade represents the calculated head grade of the original sample (total gold). The calculated gold recovery is estimated by dividing the leach grade by the total gold grade.
