Dec. 18 Troy updateAn update out today on Troy's website as relates to Guyana. Very good recovery rates for processing ore from deposits. "Since the first gold pour at Karouni in late November, the focus has been on optimising the process parameters and increasing processing rates within the plant. As of 14 December, the mill has been operating at a steady throughput rate of approximately 100 dry tonnes/hour which is well above the ramp-up budget for December and close to the nominal design rate of 125 dry tonnes/hour. As a result, the plant is now well on track to exceed the internal target for the month of ~50% of nominal capacity. Availability is high at 96% with utilisation at 98%. Recoveries are already up around 92% which is promising at this early stage in operations. Average head grade up until 12 December has been 2.87g/t and, with the recent addition of Smarts ore into the mill feed, this should increase to just over 3.0g/t in December. Initial grades received through sampling crushed ore streams, as well as solid and solution assays, indicate that grade control grades are being replicated in the plant"
