Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV:LG)(OTCQB:LGCXF) has announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for its Santa Fe Mine in Nevada. The MRE shows significant increases in resources:
- Indicated Mineral Resources: 1,539,000 contained gold equivalent (Au Eq) ounces, a 38% increase from 2023
- Inferred Mineral Resources: 411,000 contained Au Eq ounces
- Project-wide average grade: 0.99 g/t Au Eq for Indicated and 0.76 g/t Au Eq for Inferred
- Shallow oxide resources at Slab-Calvada-York expanded dramatically, nearly doubling from 2023
The company plans to use this MRE for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) to examine resuming production using open-pit mining and heap leach processing. Lahontan is progressing with state-level mine permitting and federal land management processes.
Lahontan Gold Corp (TSXV:LG)(OTCQB:LGCXF) has announced promising results from metallurgical test work across all four deposits at its Santa Fe Mine project in Nevada. The study, conducted by Kappes, Cassiday and Associates, focused on cyanide-soluble gold analysis and preg-robbing potential. Key findings include:
- Calvada Deposit: 91.5% CN-soluble gold, up from 71% previously estimated
- York Deposit: Up to 91.0% CN-soluble gold, averaging 78.4% (previously 60%)
- Slab Deposit: 69.0% CN-soluble gold on average (previously 50%)
- Santa Fe Deposit: Moderate CN-soluble gold content
Importantly, only 3 out of 205 samples showed aggressive preg-robbing potential, indicating favorable conditions for future mine operations. The company plans additional testing to optimize recoveries and processing flow sheets for its upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment.
Lahontan Gold Corp (TSXV:LG)(OTCQB:LGCXF) has announced promising results from five reverse-circulation rotary drill holes at its Santa Fe Mine project in Nevada. The drilling campaign targeted potential extensions to existing gold and silver resources and aimed to refine pit boundaries for an upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).
Key highlights include:
- 48.8 metres grading 0.51 g/t Au Eq of shallow oxide mineralization in drill hole CAL24-007R
- 7.6 metres grading 2.22 g/t Au Eq in drill hole CAL24-009R
- Significant expansion of the mineralization footprint north of the Slab open pit
- Potential for resource expansion in the Slab pit area
The results will be incorporated into a new MRE block model, forming the basis for mining planning in the upcoming PEA, expected in September 2024.
