Greenwood Mill Site
The Company is moving toward renewed operations for its Greenwood Mill. The mill consists of a permitted, modern crushing-grinding-gravity-flotation facility with a process plant rated at 200 tonnes per day capacity, assay laboratory and tailing facilities.
The process equipment has been kept under care and maintenance since December of 2008 and remains in good condition. The facility was built in 2007 and operated for eight months. It processed material from the Lexington-Grenoble Mine, with production of 5,418 ounces gold, 3,196 ounces silver and 861,281 pounds of copper from 53,782 tonnes processed. The plant produced two marketable products: a gravity-gold concentrate and gold-copper concentrate. Both products were trucked from site to Vancouver. The gravity concentrate was refined to dore bars before being sold and the concentrate was marketed to a commodities purchaser.
