Yellowjacket Gold Project — 2011 Technical Report

Date 2011
Commodities Gold

Executive Summary

The Yellowjacket Gold Project 2011 Technical Report details the processing plant configuration for the project. The facility employs a crushing circuit featuring a 60 cm jaw crusher and a 60 cm double roll crusher, though the jaw crusher is the primary unit for production crushing following the implementation of a SAG mill. The grinding circuit consists of an open circuit SAG mill followed by a closed circuit ball mill, with cyclone classification managing the grind size.

Gold recovery is achieved through a gravity concentration process rather than cyanidation. The plant utilizes two Knelson CD-20 Concentrators for primary and scavenging recovery, feeding into a Deister shaker table for final concentrate cleaning. The mill is currently powered by a diesel generator, with plans to connect to the local hydroelectric grid. Future plans include enclosing the outdoor mill facility.
