Talisker Unveils Promising Results from Gold Sorting Studies
Talisker Announces Positive Developments in Gold Sorting
Talisker Resources Ltd. (“Talisker” or the “Company”) (TSX: TSK, OTCQX: TSKFF) has recently shared encouraging preliminary results from the second phase of its laser-based ore-sorting studies at the Bralorne Gold Project. This project is located in a region known for its rich gold mining history and is pivotal for Talisker’s growth strategy.
Enhanced Gold Recovery Achieved in Initial Testing
The initial phase of the ore-sorting process at Bralorne, which was previously reported, demonstrated a remarkable improvement in the average feed grade. It increased from 14.4 grams per tonne of gold to a final sorted product grade of 27.8 grams per tonne. This significant enhancement resulted in the rejection of waste material, accounting for approximately 35% to 55% of the total rock mass. Moreover, this stage achieved gold recoveries between 95% and 99%, showcasing the potential of the Bralorne vein material for laser-based sorting technologies.
Details of the Second Testing Phase
The second phase involved a comprehensive run of mine test-work program utilizing full-scale equipment. This allowed Talisker to perform direct comparisons with production projections. During this phase, approximately 371.3 kilograms of material was processed using advanced multi-channel laser sorting technologies at Tomra’s test center in Germany. These methods assess variations in rock surface patterns, allowing the sorter to efficiently separate high-grade mineralized materials from waste.
CEO Comments on the Promising Results
Terry Harbort, the CEO of Talisker, expressed satisfaction with the outcomes of this test phase, emphasizing the sorter’s ability to effectively concentrate high-grade mineralized quartz while discarding less valuable waste. He indicated that as they await the corresponding assay results, the Company will expedite the design and permitting processes necessary for construction.
Cascading Procedure for Optimized Sorting
In the testing, a cascading procedure was employed, allowing gold-bearing materials to pass through the sorter multiple times with increasing sensitivity to waste. This process, defined by settings 1 through 3, demonstrated that while setting 1 yielded the highest recovery, setting 3 produced a higher product grade but with lower recovery. This sophisticated method can simulate diverse possible outcomes, facilitating smarter sorting decisions based on specific parameters.
Next Steps Following Testing Completion
Once the ore sorting testing was finalized, samples were dispatched for rigorous gold analysis through established methods like fire assays and multi-element analysis. Additionally, materials benefiting from the sorting process are slated for further mineral processing and metallurgical assessment to enhance overall productivity and value.
