Fulcrum Metals plc has entered into an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Teck Hughes Gold Tailings project located in Kirkland Lake, Ontario, Canada. The mine has historically produced 3,700,007 ounces of gold from 9,565,302 tons of ore. Recent sampling and drilling campaigns have estimated a total of 6,531,300 tons of material at 0.66g/ton Au for 138,460 ounces contained Au. Fulcrum is also in advanced discussions with Extrakt Process Solutions regarding the licensing of its proprietary technology for the extraction of metals from tailings without the use of cyanide. Testing of tailing material from Teck-Hughes using Extrakt's technology is scheduled for Q1 2024. Fulcrum sees this as an opportunity to utilize proven tailings extraction technology with the potential to deliver a cash-generative metals project.
