Since November of 2023, PPML and the group have performed and totally analyzed varied technical trade-off research to higher outline the FS closing design idea. In Q3 2024, PPML’s Board of Administrators permitted the corporate’s closing design idea to be developed within the FS. The FS will use the Mineral Useful resource Estimate introduced on June twenty fifth, 2024, that reported 49.5MT of Indicated Mineral Assets Grading 5.52% ZnEq and eight.3Mt of Inferred Mineral Assets Grading 5.64% ZnEq (see notice under below “About Osisko Metals”).
These extra detailed design ideas will bridge the Undertaking from a PEA stage into the FS stage and assist concurrent Environmental Evaluation and Allowing actions. A major change is that the preconcentration strategies proposed within the 2020 & 2022 PEA research (i.e. XRF Ore Sorting, Dense Media Separation) is not going to be included within the concentrator design in favour of standard “Full Milling”. This may have an total higher restoration of zinc and lead and can cut back operational danger with the less complicated circulate sheet. Different ideas that had been analyzed intimately had been the usage of former Cominco Period open pits to eliminate waste rock and tailings as a lot as potential. All key ideas will likely be offered to communities for suggestions in upcoming group conferences deliberate for November 2024.
The PPML group depends on the expertise of Certified Individuals working for established engineering corporations, together with Synectiq, BBA, GMining, Newfields, Terrane Geoscience, and WSP, to develop the Feasibility Examine and advance allowing. WSP has native workplaces within the Northwest Territories and the expertise wanted for allowing within the North.
This summer time, PPML had two weeks of web site visits the place the Undertaking was offered to Authorities representatives, group leaders and members and environmental regulators and we thank them for his or her participation.
