Boss Resources: Positive Results from Honeymoon FLT & IX Pilot Plant

摘要

ASX-listed Boss Resources said this week that operation of the Field Leach Trial and Ion Exchange pilot plant at its Honeymoon Uranium Project in South Australia continues to deliver positive results. The plant has reached a stable, steady state of operation with the first campaign underway, and has satisfied key technical validation steps during the early commissioning stages on real leach liquor, even when low-grade feed solutions were being treated. The program remains on schedule for completion in November. “We have successfully demonstrated that the historic doubts about the reliability and economic viability recovering uranium from the Honeymoon-type solutions are no longer valid. Performance to date of the new resin being tested in the IX pilot plant has exceeded expectations and proven Boss has answered this question and that the Company is on track to developing an effective process appropriate for Honeymoon-type liquors with high chloride," said Managing Director Duncan Craib.
