Welcome To The ECU Silver Mining HUB On AGORACOM Edit this title from the Fast Facts Section
in response to argoz's message

The last I heard is that ECU is not processing sulphides as the sulphide mill is re-processing the tailings to produce a gold pyrite concentrate that will yield 20-22 gms gold and 150 gms silver which will then be roasted and fed into the oxide mill for gold and silver recovery to enhance the dore bar production up another notch from what Argoz is projecting. When the tailings have been completely processed the sulphide mill will resume processing sulphide ore producing a lead con (with silver), zinc con (with silver) and 50 tonnes per day of gold/pyrite con (at the 20 gms gold and 150 gms silver) with the gold/pyrite con being sent to the roatser and then to the oxide mill for recovery of gold and silver. And of course the lead and zinc conc sold as before.

So after the higher grade material that has now started plus the roasted gold pyrite con addition to production, this then leaves upside from increased tonnage to the oxide mill or sulphide mill for future production growth and further enhanced revenue. It's not hard to see revenues in the future over $30 million annually if all goes according to plan, as I understand it is!!!
