Ormonde: Positive news from Spanish gold-copper project
Ormonde Mining has reported positive developments in gold recovery tests on a sample from the La Zarza gold-copper project in southern Spain.
Initial tests on the Gold composite sample show that up to 60% of the gold can be recovered by standard flotation procedures to first stage copper and lead concentrates. Final cleaned concentrates should be saleable directly to smelters, the company said today.
Ormonde managing director Kerr Anderson said: "I believe that we are on track to achieve at least our target gold recovery and, together with our recent high copper recovery results, this is an early but very significant step towards proving the viability of the La Zarza project."
