1. Silver Recovery Plant An EMEW® powder metal electrowinning plant on order from Electrometals Technologies Limited, is on schedule and progress payments of 75% have been made. This EMEW® plant, which should be delivered to site in July 2005 will produce high purity silver metal powder, electrowon from pregnant leach solutions, flowing directly from the heap leach. There will be no pre-concentration of this pregnant liquor, before the electrowinning process. The silver powder will be automatically harvested, under the control of the EMEW® computer (PLC). The spent solutions will be returned to the make up ponds for recirculation onto the heap. The 3 module (60 cells per module) plant has sufficient excess capacity to produce in the order of 3.5 million ounces of silver powder per annum should expansion of the operation be warranted.
