Tennant Minerals (ASX:TMS) first pass metallurgical test work on drill core composite from its Bluebird project has recovered up to 97% of the copper into a concentrate grading 23% copper and 1.5g/t gold.
This represents a 10-fold increase in copper and four-fold increase in gold from the diamond drill intersection of 61.8m @ 2.3% copper and 0.4g/t gold including 13.2m @ 9.6% copper and 1.51g/t gold.
The metallurgical test work was carried out to determine overall copper and gold recovery parameters for typical mineralisation seen in shallow and deeper copper-gold bearing intersections, which will enable the company to determine the optimal extraction process for Bluebird mineralisation.
