Briefing
The design of the mine required several steps, as listed below: • Create a diluted block model from the Mineral Resource model; • Complete pit optimization to select the optimal pit shell to be used for the mine design; • Design an operational surface mine (with ramps and benches) based on the optimal pit shell; and • Develop a life-of-mine (“LOM”) production schedule, based on supplying up to 15,000 tonnes of ore pe Key points: The design of the mine required several steps, as listed below: • Create a diluted block model from the Mineral Resource model; • Complete pit optimization to select the optimal pit shell to be used for the mine design; The cut-off grades applied are as follows: OX = Oxide ore OX-LG = 0.11-0.15 g/t AuEq OX-HG > 0.15 g/t AuEq SU = Sulphide ore SU-LG = 0.16-0.22 g/t AuEq OX-HG > 0.22 g/t AuEq 16.2 MINING SCHEDULE The surface mine producti; Metallurgical Recoveries The El Tigre Project’s process plant cyanide/leach metallurgical recovery assumptions are: Underground mine Ag = 84%, Au = 90% Historical tailings Ag = 83%, Au = 82% Stockpiled mineralization Ag; 481 Based on the above information, hydraulic head of approximately 13.1 m above the VW sensor was measured in drill hole GT-PFS-23-003 and approximately 7.8 m of head above the VW sensor was measured in drill hole GT-PF; These Mineral Reserve tonnages and grades are used as the planning basis for the production schedule; 16.1 MINE PHASING To access higher-grade ore and lower waste stripping quantities early in the production schedule, the pit has been subdivided into three phases.
