The final step was installing the three ore-sorting algorithms that were developed from mineralized material shipped by Bayhorse
to the US test facility at Walton, Kentucky in May. The equipment is installed at the company's historic Bayhorse Silver Mine in
Oregon, in which the company has earned an 80% interest.
Graeme O'Neill, President & CEO, stated: "Commissioning the KSS 100 Ore-Sorter, with state-of-the-art sensing and sorting
technology, concludes a major milestone by installing cutting-edge technology to separate mineralized from non-mineralized material
at the Bayhorse Silver Mine. The Ore-Sorter is completely automatic, with sorting operations and performance monitored remotely by
both Steinert and the Company. Steinert can change the operational characteristics and sorting algorithms of the Ore-Sorter at
their US operations center, without ever needing to do a site visit."
Upgrading the 1,300 tonnes of stockpiled silver mineralized oxide and sulphide material, from underground development conducted
concurrent with the Ore-Sorter installation, will continue through to January, 2018, with the mine operating on a 7 day and week
schedule. This stockpile was derived from both the upper level workings and the two new mineralized zones in the intermediate
level.
The first mineralized material to be processed through the Ore-Sorter is from the Sunshine Zone in the upper level, where grab
