Kenorland Minerals (TSXV: KLD; OTCQX: KLDCF; FSE: 3WQ0) announced the results of additional metallurgical testing of the Regnault gold system on the Frotet project in northern Quebec.
The study highlights include optimized recoveries of up to 93.3% gold and 90.5% silver for whole ore leaching. Those recovery rates are higher than to initial study baseline conditions. Additionally, the material from the original program was crushed and mixed giving a composite head grade of 15.9 g/t gold and 24.0 g/t silver.
The preliminary metallurgical study at Renault began in July 2022 with the completion of drill hole 22RDD149 (29.2 metres at 16.61 g/t gold including 9.9 metres at 44.89 g/t gold).
According to the company, recent testing indicated good gold and silver recovery through cyanide extraction, and the follow-up study investigated the effects of gravity separation prior to cyanide leaching, flotation prior to cyanide leaching, finer grinding, and the use of an activator to increase reaction kinetics during cyanide leaching.
The Frotet project is held under joint venture with Sumitomo Metal Mining Canada.
