Brookmount Explorations Inc. announced that the company has commenced construction of a new leach pad facility as part of a sustained program to expand processing capacity at its 8 hectare gold ore reserve in Northern Indonesia. With recent improvements in processing technology, management is moving to capture significantly higher ore recovery rates by expanding the volume of ore processed. The Company currently operates one 5,000 tonne capacity pad which runs on a production cycle of around 18 days. Yield from this pad is currently in the region of 3-5kg of pure (99%) gold worth $120,000 to $300,000 at current prices. On completion of the new 10,000 tonne capacity pad, The Company will operate continuous production cycles during the month as down time during loading and unloading of leach pads will be staggered. Utilizing higher grades of ore, from recently acquired reserve acreage adjacent to The company’s existing property, on the new, higher capacity pad, management is targeting yields of 8-12 kg ($320,000 -$480,000 at current prices), per production cycle of 21 days. Excavation has commenced on the new pad and completion, including plastic sheeting, new plumbing, installation of high capacity pumps and tailing ponds is anticipated by the end of August with initial production run taking place in September. The new facility should have significant positive impact on The Company’s profitability from the December quarter onward. The company will provide a further update to shareholders on this initiative in the next few weeks.
