Mexus Gold US announced today that it has begun mining at the 8 Brothers/370 mining project. The company has mined 1000 tons of material containing an average of 9 grams Au and 50 grams Ag per ton.
This material is currently being run through a crushing system and placed into an aerated VAT holding tank. The loading of the VAT, which has a 100 ton capacity, is expected to be completed by Wednesday, June 13th. The leaching time for this material will be 48 to 72 hours. Mexus has installed and successfully tested its portable Merrill Crowe gold recovery system. Running of the pregnant solution through this system will produce a concentrate which will be shipped to the U.S. to be refined and sold.
“I’m very excited that we have reached this milestone at the 8 Brothers project. The low cost of this operation will enable us to increase production quickly as we gain knowledge and efficiencies.” added Mexus CEO Paul Thompson.
