Fulcrum Metals Plc ( (GB:FMET) ) has provided an announcement.

Fulcrum Metals has reported significantly improved metallurgical results from Phase 3 optimisation trials at its 100% owned Teck Hughes tailings project in Ontario, using Extrakt’s cyanide-free TNS technology. Gold recovery has risen to 78%, a 31% gain on earlier testing, with strong co-product recoveries including up to 95% silver, 96% tellurium, 85% copper and some gallium, underpinning the project’s potential to recover multiple metals from a single-stage leach process.

The latest test work indicates a conceptual in-situ metal value of about US$750 million and a potential recoverable value exceeding US$550 million, while also demonstrating rapid six-hour leach cycles, sub-one-minute dewatering and high water and reagent recycling that could lower operating costs and support closed-loop, low-impact operations. These results strengthen the technical and economic case for Teck Hughes, support Fulcrum’s plan to advance to larger-scale and pilot testing, and enhance its positioning as an environmental remediation and mine-waste reprocessing specialist within the mining sector.
