The Casselman Mine is an underground coal mining operation located in Garrett County, Maryland, operated by Wilson Creek Energy, LLC. The technical report outlines the recovery methods and capital expenses associated with the project, highlighting the necessity of beneficiation for underground coal production prior to market entry.

This NI 43-101 Technical Report presents a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the Perron Project located in Quebec, Canada, prepared by Bumigeme for Amex Exploration. The project outlines a two-phase development strategy, beginning with Phase 1 toll milling of 1,000 tonnes per day (tpd) and transitioning to Phase 2 in Year 5 with an on-site processing plant operating at 2,000 tpd. The ore is sourced from a hybrid mining method comprising 88% underground mining and 12% open pit mining.

This NI 43-101 Technical Report Update on Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Tolillar Project, dated August 10, 2023, provides a detailed overview of the recovery methods employed in the project’s processing plan. The document focuses heavily on the hydrometallurgical processes required to extract lithium from the ore, specifically detailing the chemical reactions involved in impurity removal and lithium recovery.

The ESM deposits are processed at the existing ESM concentrator, originally commissioned in 1970 and last shut down in 2008. Following a refurbishment in late 2017, the concentrator resumed processing mineralization in 2018. The facility includes crushing, grinding, sequential lead and zinc flotation circuits, concentrate dewatering circuits, and loadout facilities.

The Gold Springs Project is a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for an open-pit mining operation utilizing a conventional heap leach system. The project is designed for 24-hour, 365-day operation with a throughput of approximately 15,000 tonnes per day. The ore will be processed via a combination of run-of-mine (ROM) and crushed material, with a cross-over grade determining the treatment path.

Aya Gold & Silver Inc. is operating the Zgounder Silver Project in Morocco with existing flotation and cyanidation facilities. The current flotation plant treats 500 tpd of mineralized material to produce a silver concentrate, while the cyanidation plant processes 180 tpd to produce silver ingots via Merrill-Crowe. Both plants are currently functional and independent.

The Borborema Gold Project Technical Report outlines the design of a processing plant tailored for Biotite-Garnet-Schist ore with a nominal head grade of 1.22 g/t Au. The facility is designed for an annual throughput of 2 million tonnes per year (Mtpy) via an open-pit mining method. The process flow sheet integrates gravity concentration followed by carbon-in-leach (CIL) cyanidation to achieve a global gold recovery of 92.1%. The design incorporates best practices from the gold industry, utilizing a single-stage semi-autogenous grinding (SSSAG) circuit closed with hydrocyclones to produce a P80 of 0.105 mm.

The Standard Lithium Commercial Lithium Extraction Plant is a development-stage project located in the Smackover Formation, Arkansas. The facility is designed to process Smackover brine supplied by LANXESS South Plant to extract lithium using Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technology. The process involves brine pre-treatment, Lithium Selective Sorption (LSS), purification, concentration, and conversion to battery-quality lithium carbonate.
