ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Mining works on Fortuna
AURYN Mining Corporation is pleased to announce that our mining operations at Fortuna are progressing smoothly, in line with the strategic decision made by our Board of Directors in the previous quarter. Our mining team is diligently carrying out ore extraction and accumulation directly from the vein on a modest production scale. Simultaneously, we are advancing our efforts on the Lipangue Flotation Plant project.
Project visit from German mining experts
The recent visit to Fortuna on December 1st by a group of esteemed German professors and academics, led by Prof. Dr. Helmut Mischo, Dr.-Ing. from the Institute of Mining and Special Civil Engineering at the Technical University Bergakademie Freiberg (TUBAF), was a noteworthy event. Prof. Mischo, a specialist in Underground Mining Methods, has extensive expertise in mine planning and design, underground deposit extraction, mine development, conveyor and transport systems, and mine safety and rescue.
The group thoroughly inspected our Antonino Tunnel project, including key sites such as the Don Luis Vein interception, the Emergency Chimney, and the most significant mineralized structures discovered along the tunnel, as well as the historical Fortuna Old Works. The visiting team expressed high regard for the development of our mining project, with Prof. Mischo offering particularly favorable opinions about Fortuna. He acknowledged the evident presence of significant mineral deposits and the proven access to the vein structure at various levels and areas.
Prof. Mischo emphasized the critical challenge of optimizing mining operations for maximum efficiency. He advised that each mining site’s unique physical and chemical characteristics necessitate a tailored approach, using the latest and most effective extraction techniques. This advice aligns with Auryn’s strategy to consider a 100 ton/day flotation plant, incorporating cutting-edge mineral processing technologies. Prof. Mischo supported this strategy, suggesting that it could yield the optimal combination for recovering Fortuna’s minerals. He assured that once the most efficient recovery method is established, production scaling would be straightforward and highly effective.
In recent weeks, we have engaged in discussions with Prof. Mischo to involve a select group of TUBAF students in developing a conceptual model to optimize Fortuna’s exploitation. We are enthusiastic about this collaboration and anticipate sharing positive developments soon.
On-Site Flotation Plant in Lipangue
We are actively engaged in preparing the essential technical documentation required for submitting our project to the relevant authority in Chile. This preparation is a critical step in ensuring compliance with local regulations and advancing the project efficiently.
Q1 2024 – OBJECTIVES
The company continues to explore options for financing the development of a 100 ton/day flotation plant.
Long-Term Vision
Our long-term goal is to transition the Lipangue project from exploration to full-scale production. The cash flow generated will not only fuel further exploration but will also enable us to return value to our shareholders, reinforcing our commitment to stakeholder profitability.
