Explor Resources Inc. announced the completion of Preliminary Metallurgical Testing on the low grade near surface gold ore on the Timmins Porcupine West Property. The company selected a representative sample from diamond drill holes in the area of the potential open pit. A 45 kilogram composite sample of mineralized diamond drill core was sent to SGS Minerals Services in Lakefield, Ontario for metallurgical test-work. The test program included sample preparation, characterization, and flowsheet development testing. Ore characterization included grindability, mineralogy by QEM-RMS (QEMSCAN) rapid mineral scan, and chemical head grade analysis. Flowsheet development testwork focused on gravity separation, as well as flotation and cyanidation of gravity separation tailing.
