Heap-leach option adds 17% LOM gold production to Oromin OJVG project

摘要

Oromin Exploration (TSX: OLE) sweetened the profile of its OJVG gold project in Senegal with the addition of a heap-leach mining option. Last July, Oromin outlined a carbon-in-leach (CIL) gold project at OJVG in a feasibility study, estimating 1.43 million ounces of gold production over a nine-year mine life. That feasibility study only included higher grade material to be mined via open-pit and underground methods, not lower grade material in several other deposits and rock otherwise considered waste.
