Arizaro Resource and Lindero Deposit Technical Report

Company Arizaro Resources
Date 2013

Executive Summary

This technical report details the recovery methods for the Lindero deposit, specifically focusing on a heap leach facility designed for a nominal production rate of 18,750 t/d. The project is projected to have a 10-year mine life with a Proven and Probable reserve of 65.5 million tonnes of ore. The ore will be fine crushed to 9mm using a three-stage system incorporating jaw, cone, and HPGR crushers before being conveyor-stacked on the leach pad in 10-meter lifts.

The leach system is designed to allow two-stage leaching during the early years of the operation, transitioning to a single stage leach at Year 4. The primary and secondary leach times are 60 days and 180 days respectively. The adsorption circuit in the ADR plant is designed to process 800 m3/hr initially, expanding to 1,600 m3/hr ultimately. The facility is designed as a zero discharge system with lined ponds for pregnant and excess solution containment.
