Revival Gold reports metallurgical test results at Mercur

Revival Gold reports results from the Company’s column leach metallurgical test program on representative samples from the Mercur Gold Project in Utah, U.S.A. Five composite samples were developed from seven HQ core holes for testing. The composites were developed to be geologically and grade representative of the primary gold-bearing heap leachable host rocks at Mercur. The composites were crushed to 100% passing 12.5 mm and actively leached for seven weeks. The test program was undertaken by Kappes Cassiday & Associates at KCA’s laboratory in Reno, Nevada. Results of were as follows: Overall extraction rates for gold for the five column leach tests were 85%, 85%, 74%, 92%, and 82%. Average sodium cyanide consumption for the column leach tests was 0.57 kg/T (1.14 lbs/t) and lime addition was 1.0 kg/T. The column leach kinetics were rapid on all composites with 90% of the gold leached reporting to solution after only five days.
