The objectives of the PEA include:
- Completion of an independent preliminary scoping-level engineering analysis of the project with the aim of producing zinc
compound chemicals and zinc oxide concentrate;
- Providing an estimate of the potential economic value of the project;
- Providing an estimate of the project's capital costs, operating costs, as well as sustaining capital costs;
- Providing a conceptual economic model of the project over the life-of-mine;
- The PEA will be completed and published in the first quarter of 2019.
Bruce Durham, President and CEO, commented "The commencement of the Lone Mountain PEA marks another major step forward for the
Company following completion and filing of the Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate in September of this year. This will be a pivotal
phase for Nevada Zinc as we fast-track the development of the Lone Mountain Project as a zinc chemical compounds and oxide
concentrate project. Our shareholders are uniquely positioned to benefit from the potential significant increase in zinc chemical
compounds demand throughout North American markets."
Don Christie, CFO and Director, stated "The PEA will provide us with a solid base from which we will be able to communicate the
economic characteristics of the Lone Mountain Project and we expect it to be a very exciting and rewarding time for Nevada
Zinc."
