Executive Summary
The Empire State Mines (ESM) concentrator, originally commissioned in 1970 and last shut down in 2008, was refurbished in late 2017 and resumed processing mineralization in 2018. The facility is designed to handle 5,000 short tons per day, though current operations run on a reduced schedule of one shift per day, four days per week, processing between 10,124 and 11,375 tons per week. The mine operates underground, with mining production typically not exceeding 2,275 tons per day, projected to peak at 2,800 tons per day in 2028.
The processing flowsheet includes crushing, grinding, sequential lead and zinc flotation circuits, concentrate dewatering circuits, and loadout facilities. Primary crushing is performed underground using a 36 in x 48 in jaw crusher or on surface using a 30 in x 42 in jaw crusher. Secondary crushing utilizes an Allis Chalmers Hydrocone crusher. The concentrator is operated intermittently, typically for 10 to 14 hours per day, without notable metallurgical losses from start-up and shutdown cycles.

Executive Summary
This technical report details the recovery methods and processing infrastructure for the Empire State Mines (ESM) project, operated by Titan Mining Corporation. The report focuses on the existing ESM concentrator, originally commissioned in 1970 and refurbished in late 2017 to resume processing mineralization in 2018. The facility is designed to handle 5,000 short tons per day, though current operations run on a reduced schedule of one shift per day, four days per week.
The processing flowsheet includes crushing, grinding, sequential lead and zinc flotation circuits, concentrate dewatering, and loadout facilities. Primary crushing occurs underground via a 36 in x 48 in jaw crusher or on surface via a 30 in x 42 in jaw crusher. Secondary crushing utilizes an Allis Chalmers Hydrocone crusher. The concentrator operates intermittently without notable metallurgical losses, with plans to increase throughput to peak LOM production levels of 14,000 tons per week by 2028.
