Red River Resource - Gravity Circuit Design for Hillgrove Gold Mine
Mincore is engaged in the Design and Engineering of a Gravity Circuit to remove free ‘gravity recoverable gold’ from the Baker’s Creek Mine gold ore dump at Hillgrove Mine Site.
Red River Resource - Gravity Circuit Design for Hillgrove Gold Mine
The Hillgrove Mine site includes a 250ktpa capacity processing plant currently comprising a selective flotation circuit (capable of producing antimony-gold and refractory gold concentrates), an antimony leach/SXEW/refining & casting plant, a gold cyanide leach circuit & gold room and a pressure oxidation circuit. Current testwork has indicated that 61% of the gold in the Baker’s Creek Mine ore dump will be recovered by gravity. The gravity circuit will be bolted onto the existing grinding circuit to treat the gravity recoverable gold. The gravity circuit is expected to treat 300ktpa of ore with an average gold grade of 2.7 g/t.
