Milling of approximately 68,000 tons of ore has <br />demonstrated the effectiveness of the bulk flotation milling process. <br />• Flotation concentrates shipped to smelters averaged; <br />4 - l0 ounces gold per ton <br />200 - 800 ounces silver per ton <br />10 - 15 percent lead <br />10 - 15 percent zinc <br />1 - 1.5 percent copper <br />• Sulfides aze limited to the ore zones and waste rock will not be acid generating. <br />• Based on 23 years of monitoring and analysis, mine water has a pH in the 7.5 to 8.0 *ange <br />attributable to calcite in the ore zones. <br />• Plans call for filtering and returning mill tailings underground as backfill. <br />4. <br />
