Executive Summary
The 2023 Technical Report details the recovery methods for the Bonikro Gold Project. The process employs a conventional free milling cyanide leaching flowsheet with primary and secondary crushing, single stage milling, gravity recovery, followed by Carbon-in-Leach (CIL). Gravity recovered gold is electrowon prior to smelting into doré.
The plant throughput is expected to remain at 2.5 Mt/a for the life of the project, requiring an average treatment rate of 310-315 t/h. Life of Mine (LOM) production estimates indicate 15.42 Mt of ore treated with an average grade of 1.30 g/t Au. This results in 646 koz contained gold and 591 koz recovered gold at 91.5% recovery.
Reagent consumption includes lime, sodium cyanide, carbon, and grinding media. Power demand is estimated at 8 MW, with water demand at 220 m³/h. Tailings are disposed of to the TSF without cyanide detoxification.
