This technical report outlines the recovery methods for the Monterde Project, based on metallurgical testwork and engineering design appropriate for a preliminary economic assessment. The proposed processing plant is designed to treat 2,800 tonnes per day of ore, utilizing a conventional gold and silver recovery circuit. The design focuses on maximizing metal recovery while minimizing capital and operating costs through the use of agitated tank cyanide leaching, counter current decantation, and a Merrill Crowe finishing step.

This technical report details updated diamond drilling, metallurgical testing, and mineral resources for the Klaza Project in Yukon, Canada. The report outlines a processing flowsheet that incorporates gravity pre-concentration to reduce grinding circuit tonnage by approximately 50%. The process involves crushing run-of-mine material to 9.5 mm, screening fines, and gravity concentration on the coarse fraction. The resulting concentrate is blended with fines and fed to a grinding circuit followed by sequential rougher and cleaner flotation to produce gold-rich lead and zinc concentrates.

The report details the recovery methods for the Copper Creek Project, outlining two distinct process flowsheets designed to treat mineralized materials from various deposits. The primary process utilizes froth flotation to beneficiate copper, molybdenum, and silver from transitional and sulphide materials, with a nominal throughput of 30,000 t/d. The second process extracts copper from oxide materials via heap leaching, solvent extraction, and electrowinning, with a nominal throughput of 6,850 t/d.

The Lost Creek ISR Uranium Property utilizes an In Situ Recovery (ISR) method for uranium extraction, with a processing plant operational since August 2013. The facility comprises four major solution circuits: uranium recovery via ion exchange (IX), elution to strip uranium from resin, yellowcake precipitation, and dewatering, drying, and packaging. The process involves pumping production fluid containing dissolved uranyl carbonate to the plant, where uranium is extracted onto resin, eluted, and precipitated using hydrogen peroxide and sodium hydroxide.

This Pre-Feasibility Study (PEA) by SRK Consulting evaluates the Taç and Çorak deposits on the Yusufeli Property. The report focuses on mineral processing predictions based on locked cycle test work. Design recoveries for target metals were determined to be in line with test results, accounting for typical scale-up issues.

The NICO Project recovery methods involve a two-stage process designed to extract gold, cobalt, bismuth, and copper from sulphide ore. The initial stage occurs at the project site in the Northwest Territories, where a bulk flotation concentrate is produced from underground and open pit mining operations. This concentrate is then transported to the Saskatchewan Metals Processing Plant (SMPP) for hydrometallurgical treatment to separate the individual commodities into saleable products.

This Technical Report details the recovery methods for the Pumpkin Hollow Copper Project in Yerington, Nevada. Two development options are presented: Case A, a standalone 5,000 stpd underground mine, and Case B, an integrated 70,000 stpd operation combining open pit and underground mining. The processing plant design focuses on a SABC comminution circuit followed by rougher, regrind, and cleaner flotation circuits to produce a copper concentrate targeted at 26.0% Cu.

The Gas Hills Uranium Project Pre-Feasibility Study outlines an In-Situ Recovery (ISR) operation designed to extract uranium from underground deposits. The project utilizes a satellite facility approach, where the primary Ion Exchange (IX) circuit is located at the Gas Hills site, while downstream processing such as elution, precipitation, and packaging occurs at the Azarga Dewey-Burdock Project. This configuration allows for efficient resource utilization by leveraging existing infrastructure at the Dewey-Burdock facility.

This Technical Report section details the recovery methods for the River Valley Project crushing and process facilities. The process plant design is based on a nominal 6,850 mtpd throughput, treating sulphide material from the Dana and Lismer Zones via conventional flotation operations. The proposed mining and processing schedule supports a 16-year mine life, with process water recovery completed via a tailings thickener and TMF water recapture.
