Scorpio Gold Announces Filing of NI 43-101 Technical Report and Feasibility Study for Processing the Heap Leach Mineral Resource at Mineral Ridge

06.11.2017  |  GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 06, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Scorpio Gold Corp. (“Scorpio Gold” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:SGN) is pleased to announce it has filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) a National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) Technical Report and feasibility study in relation to reprocessing the heap leach material at its Mineral Ridge property, located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. Scorpio Gold holds a 70% interest in the Property with joint venture partner Elevon, LLC (30%).

The Technical Report is in relation to the news release dated October 10, 2017, which is also the effective date of the Technical Report.

Brian Lock, Interim CEO comments, “Once again I’d like to thank Novus Engineering Inc., Mine Technical Services (“MTS”), NewFields and our Scorpio Gold employees for their dedicated effort in completing this positive study on the heap leach resource and proposed milling facility at Mineral Ridge. This study provides the foundation for recovering a substantial portion of the 122,000 ounces of gold mineralization contained on the heap leach pad, providing five more years of mine life at Mineral Ridge. Additionally, due to higher expected recovery rates provided by the new milling circuit, the Company has engaged MTS to prepare an NI 43-101 compliant resource and reserve estimate and updated mine plan for other mineable mineral resources already defined on the property. This report is expected in mid-December, and if determined economically viable, should add additional mineable high-grade mineralization to the milling circuit, thus increasing the feed grade and further extending the life of mine. Further exploration at Mineral Ridge may also add additional resources.”
