The Company’s contractor uses only biodegradable additives such as mud and polymers for diamond drilling.
When we operated our 150-tonne per day gold recovery plant, we used only two flotation reagents, both of which quickly broke down in the tailing pond. The plant did not use either mercury amalgamation or cyanidation.
The Doña Amelia gold mineralization is highly oxidized, and both the ore and the plant tailing contain virtually no sulfides. The tailing therefore has no potential to become acid generating.
