exs metallurgical testing
exs metallurgical testinga recent article on another junior company which is in the expanding phase caught my attention..

here is a tiny portion which i felt relevant toward the meatllurgical testing of the core at tqw...
"Completing metallurgical studies are a very important milestone in the development process of a gold project. You can have as much gold as you want in a resource in the ground, but if you can’t get it out of the rock easily, it really is just a bunch of worthless rock. So….. one of the biggest de-risking mechanisms for any gold mining project, is being able to extract the gold easily from the rock through good metallurgical processing parameters, and to recover as much gold with as little effort, capital and ongoing operating costs as possible. This sometimes can be the key component in order to justify the economics of pushing a project towards a construction or production decision, to generate a profit."
The article goes on to mention the "presence of a significant amount of free gold " and its benefits.
Worth a read as positive metallurgical testing results of the core from tpw will affect decisions made with respect to recovery rates and the validity of the operation...
