Rye Patch Receives Positive Metallurgical Results from Lincoln Hill

11.12.2013  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Dec 11, 2013) - Rye Patch Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RPM)(OTCQX:RPMGF)(FRANKFURT:5TN) (the "Company" or "Rye Patch") is pleased to report the results of recent bottle-roll metallurgical test work from the 100% controlled Lincoln Hill project. Kappes, Cassidy & Associates (KCA) of Reno, Nevada completed the bottle roll metallurgical testing. Twelve composites were utilized and are reported below.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • A total of nine oxide composites yielded an average recovery of 83% for gold and 84% for silver, with values ranging between 70% to 95% for gold, and 51% to 95% for silver;
  • Three sulfide composites returned an average of 80% recovery for gold and 61% recovery for silver; and
  • The twelve combined oxide and sulfide composites have an average recovery of 82% for gold and 79% for silver;
  • KCA performed metallurgical tests on 12 separate composites that were composited by rock type, silicification, oxidation state and gold grade.

A total of twelve composites were identified incorporating attributes of rock type, alteration, and oxidation state within three gold grade ranges for the Lincoln Hill deposit. The composites for bottle-roll metallurgical testing were constructed from drillhole intervals with similar grades from multiple drillhole intercepts across the deposit. Table 1 shows the drillholes used for each composite.

William Howald, the Company's President and CEO, commented, "The results of the Lincoln Hill bottle-roll tests are very encouraging. The gold and especially the silver recoveries show the unique value opportunity in the district. The gold and silver recoveries reported are similar in character to the nearby operation at Rochester, and the advancing Spring Valley deposit."

The results from 10 mesh (1.7 mm) on oxide material averaged recoveries of 76% recovery for gold and 79% for silver while 150 mesh on oxide material averaged recoveries of 86% for gold and 87% for silver, and 200 mesh recoveries on oxide material averaged recoveries of 85% for gold and 87% for silver. The 10% difference between 10 mesh and 150 mesh indicates that recoveries are susceptible to particle size thus Au and Ag recoveries could be enhanced by particle size.
