Apollo Consolidated Limited reported preliminary testing for cyanide-leachable gold has been carried out on five fresh-rock samples collected from diamond core intersecting the 161 Lode, Bombora Prospect. Bombora is the site of an emerging gold discovery on the company's Rebecca Gold Project, located 150km NE of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia. An average gold recovery of 94.7% was achieved. Five composite fresh-rock samples were selected from intercepts reported in diamond drill holes RHD04 and RHD05 that both pierced the sulphide-rich 161 Lode, and assessed for cyanide leachable gold using 1kg bottle-rolls. These bottle-roll tests have been used as the preliminary tool for assessing the basic leach characteristics of the selected samples, the results of which can be used to design further metallurgical studies. The results demonstrated that excellent gold recoveries can be achieved from typical Bombora style disseminated sulphide lode material using conventional processing. The test work indicated head grade assay variation and relatively slow leach kinetics, possibly related to the presence of coarse gold as observed in geological logging. The company will carry out additional test work in due course to examine the potential of an initial gravity separation stage and to determine pre-oxidation requirements and optimal cyanide leach times on the gravity tails.
