North Bay Resources (OTC: NBRI) has completed its second test shipment of 240 pounds of gold concentrate from approximately 10 tons of ore processed at its Bishop Gold Mill in California. The concentrate was shipped to Just Refiners and ALS Geochemical in Reno, NV.

The company has implemented significant mill improvements, including an additional water holding tank and a new recirculation pump, which will increase processing capacity from 10-20 tons to nearly 96 tons per day. The water recirculation system is expected to handle over 80% of water use, eliminating the previous 8-hour recharge requirement.

At the Fran Gold Project, NBRI is planning to extract 10,000 tons of near-surface material from the main zone, which has shown consistent grades of 0.5 ounces per ton across 100-foot-wide trenches. The property spans 34,360 acres and features a gold deposit extending 3,700 feet in length, up to 120 feet in width, and over 700 feet in depth, with gold grades reaching up to 2.6 troy ounces per ton.

North Bay Resources (OTC: NBRI) ha completato la sua seconda spedizione di prova di 240 libbre di concentrato d'oro da circa 10 tonnellate di minerale lavorato presso il suo impianto di lavorazione dell'oro a Bishop, in California. Il concentrato è stato spedito a Just Refiners e ALS Geochemical a Reno, NV.

L'azienda ha implementato significativi miglioramenti all'impianto, inclusi un ulteriore serbatoio di accumulo d'acqua e una nuova pompa di ricircolo, che aumenteranno la capacità di lavorazione da 10-20 tonnellate a quasi 96 tonnellate al giorno. Il sistema di ricircolo dell'acqua dovrebbe gestire oltre l'80% dell'uso d'acqua, eliminando il precedente requisito di ricarica di 8 ore.

Presso il Fran Gold Project, NBRI prevede di estrarre 10.000 tonnellate di materiale vicino alla superficie dalla zona principale, che ha mostrato gradi costanti di 0,5 once per tonnellata in trincee larghe 100 piedi. La proprietà si estende su 34.360 acri e presenta un deposito d'oro lungo 3.700 piedi, largo fino a 120 piedi e profondo oltre 700 piedi, con gradi d'oro che raggiungono fino a 2,6 once troy per tonnellata.

North Bay Resources (OTC: NBRI) ha completado su segundo envío de prueba de 240 libras de concentrado de oro a partir de aproximadamente 10 toneladas de mineral procesado en su molino de oro en Bishop, California. El concentrado fue enviado a Just Refiners y ALS Geochemical en Reno, NV.

La empresa ha implementado mejoras significativas en el molino, incluyendo un tanque de almacenamiento de agua adicional y una nueva bomba de recirculación, lo que aumentará la capacidad de procesamiento de 10-20 toneladas a casi 96 toneladas por día. Se espera que el sistema de recirculación de agua maneje más del 80% del uso de agua, eliminando el requisito anterior de recarga de 8 horas.

En el Fran Gold Project, NBRI planea extraer 10,000 toneladas de material cercano a la superficie de la zona principal, que ha mostrado grados consistentes de 0.5 onzas por tonelada en zanjas de 100 pies de ancho. La propiedad abarca 34,360 acres y cuenta con un depósito de oro que se extiende 3,700 pies de largo, hasta 120 pies de ancho y más de 700 pies de profundidad, con grados de oro que alcanzan hasta 2.6 onzas troy por tonelada.

North Bay Resources (OTC: NBRI)는 캘리포니아 비숍 금광에서 가공된 약 10톤의 광석으로부터 240파운드의 금 농축물 두 번째 시험 선적을 완료했습니다. 농축물은 네바다주 리노에 있는 Just Refiners와 ALS Geochemical로 배송되었습니다.

회사는 추가 물 저장 탱크와 새로운 순환 펌프를 포함한 중요한 밀 개선을 시행하여 처리 용량을 10-20톤에서 거의 96톤/일로 증가시킬 것입니다. 물 재순환 시스템은 물 사용량의 80% 이상을 처리할 것으로 예상되며, 이전의 8시간 충전 요구 사항을 없애줍니다.

Fran Gold Project에서 NBRI는 주요 구역에서 표면 가까이의 10,000톤의 물질을 추출할 계획이며, 이 구역은 100피트 너비의 도랑에서 톤당 0.5온스의 일관된 등급을 보여주었습니다. 이 부지는 34,360 에이커에 걸쳐 있으며, 길이가 3,700피트, 너비가 최대 120피트, 깊이가 700피트를 초과하는 금 매장량을 특징으로 하며, 금 등급은 톤당 최대 2.6 트로이 온스에 이릅니다.

North Bay Resources (OTC: NBRI) a complété son deuxième envoi d'essai de 240 livres de concentré d'or provenant d'environ 10 tonnes de minerai traité dans son usine d'or à Bishop, en Californie. Le concentré a été expédié à Just Refiners et ALS Geochemical à Reno, NV.

L'entreprise a mis en œuvre d'importantes améliorations à l'usine, y compris un réservoir d'eau supplémentaire et une nouvelle pompe de recirculation, ce qui augmentera la capacité de traitement de 10-20 tonnes à presque 96 tonnes par jour.

BISHOP, Calif., March 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- North Bay Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “North Bay”) (OTC: NBRI) is pleased to announce a 2nd test shipment of 240 pounds of gold concentrate from approximately 10 tons of ore processed at the Company’s Bishop Gold Mill. The gold concentrate was shipped to Just Refiners, Reno, NV, with sample splits to ALS Geochemical, Reno, NV. A prior concentrate shipment is currently in process at the Refinery (see Press Release dated March 4, 2024). The new shipment was comprised of centrifuge concentrate and centrifuge reconcentrated Deister Shaker Table scavenger recovery. The Company continues Mill optimization and processing of ore from the Company’s Fran Gold Project with the stockpiling of gold concentrate for bulk shipment to the Refinery.

The Company has added an additional water holding tank and is installing a new pump that will allow for recirculation of water from the tailings pond allowing for an increase to near capacity of 96 tons per day. The water tower currently requires up to 8 hours to recharge but will now only be required for top up as recirculation is expected to handle greater than 80% of water use. Prior to the recirculation pump installation the Mill was limited to 4 hours of continuous operation with a capacity of 10-20 tons per day. In addition to the water storage tank and recirculation pump, upgrades and repairs to the classifier and Deister Shaker Table now allow for continuous milling operations.

With successful and stable operation of the gravity circuit completed, and upgrading of water availability, the Company has begun implementation of the flotation circuit. Based on prior metallurgical studies, gold recovery by flotation is expected to significantly increase recovery of very fine (less than minus 200 mesh) gold and overall physical concentrate production. The Company has begun mobilization and logistics coordination for additional shipments from the Company’s Fran Gold Project to provide additional feedstock to the Mill.

Fran Gold Project

Planning for near term extraction of 10,000 tons of near surface material has commenced. The development focus remains the main zone where consistent grade of 0.5 ounces per ton has been identified in trenches 100 feet in width and is further supported by drill hole data. The Property is 34,360 acres and is located 20 miles from Centerra Gold’s 60,000 tonne per day / $15B in situ resource Mt. Milligan Copper, Gold Mine (299Mt @ 0.22% Cu, .45 g/t Au). To date there has been in excess of 50,000 feet of diamond drilling in 104 holes at Fran, primarily at the Bullion Alley Zone. A gold deposit, 3700 feet in length, with width of up to 120 feet, and depth of over 700 feet has been delineated. The deposit contains 3 to 4 well defined parallel gold veins grading up to 2.6 troy ounces of gold per ton as well as wide sections of low and mid-grade gold in veins and disseminated in veinlets throughout the deposit. Surface trenching has identified a near surface sub-zone where the gold bearing veins swell and are accessible from surface. There is approximately 5,000 tons of stockpiled material currently available for shipment.
