Higher Gold, Silver & Copper Recoveries At The Gabbs Project

VANCOUVER – P2 Gold Inc. reported on the metallurgical program for its gold-copper Gabbs Project located on the Walker-Lane Trend in Nevada. After 115 days of leaching, the metal recoveries of the Phase 3 Metallurgical Program are far exceeding the recoveries used in the May 2024 Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Gabbs Project.
“The Phase Three Metallurgical Program was established with a target of improving the leach kinetics and overall extraction by adding cyanide during agglomeration and by increasing the cyanide concentration in the leach solutions,” said, Joe Ovsenek, President & CEO. “Recoveries and leach kinetics have significantly improved with 98% of the gold, 90% of the silver and 85% of the copper recovered in the first 58 days of leaching.”
The Phase Three Metallurgical Program ended at 115 days of leaching with copper and silver recoveries continuing to increase. Final metallurgical recoveries will be announced upon completion of final analysis.
Following completion of the Phase Three Metallurgical Program, the Company plans to update the May 2024 Preliminary Economic Assessment using, among other things, the updated recoveries for gold, copper and silver.
