Recent Highlights
- In the most recent quarter, Otis initiated work on a maiden preliminary economic assessment, or PEA, at the Kilgore Project, Clark County, Idaho. The report is expected to be completed in Q4 2019.
- Column leach metallurgical test results from Sill Domain material at Kilgore were reported (see News Release dated April 15, 2019) which showed a 74.8% gold recovery from 12.5mm (0.5”) crushed core and 83.5% gold recovery from 38mm (1.5”) crushed core. The 38mm crushed core leached slower but has higher overall gold extraction.
- Further, and perhaps most importantly, final reported gold test grades from the Sill Domain material showed a 59% increase, with calculated final grades returning up to 1.42 g/t Au from initial head assay test grades of 0.89 g/t Au.
- The complaint filed by several groups against the US Forest Service in connection with the approval of Kilgore’s most recent Plan of Operation (see News Release dated November 19, 2018) continues to progress through the legal system. The various filings, motions and responses will be complete by August 15, 2019, at which time a Federal judge will provide a ruling on the complaint. There is no set date for the courts to provide a ruling, and in the interim the current Plan of Operation remains in good standing.
- The Company continues to conduct geological modelling and other assessment work at its Oakley Project and is developing a planned exploration program.
