Northwest Copper ( (TSE:NWST) ) has issued an announcement.

NorthWest Copper reported significantly improved metallurgical recoveries for gold and silver from higher-grade zones at its Kwanika project, with gold recoveries of about 94.6%-96.3% and silver recoveries of roughly 96.3%, while maintaining strong copper recoveries of about 88.9%-90.2%. The refined flowsheet, which combines conventional grinding and flotation with leaching of flotation tails, has delivered overall recovery gains of 34% for gold and 37% for silver versus previous test work, supporting plans for an updated mineral resource in the first quarter and a new Preliminary Economic Assessment targeted for mid-2026 that could underpin a more economically compelling open-pit and underground development concept and inform future drilling and mining method evaluation at Kwanika.
