Wallbridge Reports 85% Gold Recovery From Martiniere Metallurgical Testing

Wallbridge報告Martiniere冶金測試黃金回收率達到85%

TORONTO, Dec. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wallbridge Mining Company Limited (TSX:WM, OTCQB:WLBMF) ("Wallbridge" or the "Company") today reports the results of its 2024 metallurgical testing program for its Martiniere Gold Project ("Martiniere"). Test work completed by SGS Lakefield Research Ltd. ("SGS Lakefield") indicates gold recoveries of up to 84.8% can be achieved using conventional and proven technologies.

多倫多,2024年12月19日(環球新聞專線)——沃爾布里奇礦業有限公司(多倫多證券交易所股票代碼:WM,OTCQB: WLBMF)(「Wallbridge」 或 「公司」)今天公佈了其2024年馬蒂內爾黃金項目(「馬蒂尼埃爾」)冶金測試計劃的結果。SGS 萊克菲爾德研究有限公司(「SGS Lakefield」)完成的測試工作表明,使用傳統和成熟的技術可以實現高達84.8%的黃金回收率。

The 2024 metallurgical testing program was done as an initial test to evaluate potential gold recoveries for various grind sizes and processing technologies applied to a representative sample composite collected from five holes drilled along the Bug Lake zone at Martiniere (see map below). Material collected was tested for its amenability to gravity separation, flotation, and cyanidation under varying grind sizes and conditions. Testing shows gold recoveries up to 84.8% can be achieved using a combination of gravity, flotation, regrind and cyanidation of sulfide concentrate and flotation tailings (see table below).

2024年的冶金測試計劃是作爲初步測試完成的,目的是評估應用於從馬蒂尼埃爾Bug Lake地區鑽探的五個孔中採集的代表性複合樣本中採集的各種研磨尺寸和加工技術的潛在金回收率(見下圖)。對收集的材料進行了測試,以確定其在不同的研磨大小和條件下是否適合重力分離、浮選和氰化。測試表明,結合使用硫化物精礦和浮選尾礦的重力、浮選、再研磨和氰化可以實現高達 84.8% 的金回收率(見下表)。

"These initial metallurgical test results are positive and achieve two important objectives," stated Brian Penny, Wallbridge Chief Executive Officer. "First, they demonstrate that good gold recoveries can be attained from Bug Lake mineralization. Second, they indicate these recoveries can be achieved using well-established time-tested mineral processing technologies. Moreover, the information generated by this year's metallurgical testing program at Martiniere provides a solid foundation for the design of future metallurgical and related technical studies as we continue to explore the deposit and advance the project."

Wallbridge首席執行官布萊恩·彭尼表示:「這些初步的冶金測試結果呈陽性,實現了兩個重要目標。」「首先,他們表明,Bug Lake礦化可以獲得良好的黃金回收率。其次,他們表明這些回收可以通過久經考驗的成熟礦物加工技術來實現。此外,在我們繼續勘探礦牀和推進項目的過程中,今年的馬蒂尼埃爾冶金測試項目生成的信息爲未來冶金和相關技術研究的設計提供了堅實的基礎。」

冶金測試工作結果:

The grade of the composite sample averaged 3.21 g/t Au. A gold recovery of 18.5% was achieved by gravity separation for material with a P80 grind size of 150 microns ("μm"). Flotation testing conducted on material with a P80 grind size of 83 μm achieved a gold recovery of 89.5%. Cyanidation ('CN') testing done on flotation tailings material yielded a maximum gold recovery of 68.2%. Cyanidation of sulfide concentrate re-ground to P80 at 29 μm and 16 μm returned gold recoveries of 62.0% and 82.9% respectively.

複合樣品的平均品位爲3.21克/噸金。通過對P80研磨尺寸爲150微米(「μm」)的材料進行重力分離,金回收率爲18.5%。對P80研磨尺寸爲83微米的材料進行的浮選測試實現了89.5%的金回收率。對浮選尾礦材料進行的氰化(「CN」)測試得出的最大黃金回收率爲68.2%。硫化物精礦的氰化反應在29微米和16微米處重新研磨成P80,金回收率分別爲62.0%和82.9%。

Overall, an average gold recovery of 84.8% was achieved after a 48 hour processing cycle involving a combination of gravity recovery, sulfide flotation, regrind of sulfide concentrate to P80 at 16 μm, and cyanidation of sulfide concentrate and residual flotation tailings.

總體而言,經過48小時的加工週期,包括重力回收、硫化物浮選、將硫化物精礦在16 μm處重磨至P80,以及硫化物精礦和殘留浮選尾礦的氰化處理相結合,實現了84.8%的平均黃金回收率。

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

質量保證/質量控制

Wallbridge maintains a Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") program for all its exploration projects using industry best practices. Key elements of the QA/QC program include verifiable chain of custody for samples, regular insertion of blanks and certified reference materials, and completion of secondary check analyses performed at a separate independent accredited laboratory. Drill core is halved and shipped in sealed bags to SGS in Val d'Or, Quebec where they are re-distributed to other SGS laboratory facilities according to the analytical method being requested by Walbridge. Gold analyses are routinely performed via fire assay with ICP-OES finish methods. For greater precision and accuracy, samples assaying 10 g/t Au or greater are re-assayed via metallic screen fire assay method or fire assay/gravimetric finish, depending on the amount of sample material remaining available. Samples containing visible gold are submitted directly for analysis by metallic screen fire assay method.

Wallbridge使用行業最佳實踐爲其所有勘探項目維持質量保證/質量控制(「QA/QC」)計劃。質量保證/質量控制計劃的關鍵要素包括樣品的可覈查監管鏈、定期插入空白和經認證的參考材料,以及完成在單獨的獨立認證實驗室進行的二次檢查分析。鑽芯被切成兩半,裝在密封袋中運往位於魁北克瓦爾德奧的SGS,在那裏根據沃爾布里奇要求的分析方法將其重新分配到其他SGS實驗室設施。黃金分析通常通過 ICP-OES 表面處理方法進行火法分析。爲了獲得更高的精度和準確性,根據剩餘樣品材料的數量,通過金屬絲網火焰分析方法或火焰分析/重量法進行重新分析,金含量爲10 g/t Au或更高的樣品。含有可見金的樣品直接提交給金屬屏幕火災分析方法進行分析。

Material collected for metallurgical testing was selected by Wallbridge geologists from individual drill core samples based on their analyzed gold grades and style of mineralization consistent with the broader Bug Lake zone. A total of 180 kilograms of mineralized drill core was collected and submitted to SGS Lakefield Research facility, a division of SGS Canada. SGS Lakefield is the only commercial laboratory that is accredited to ISO Guide 25, supplemented by CAN-P-1579 for mineral analysis.

爲冶金測試收集的材料是由Wallbridge地質學家根據分析的金等級和與更廣泛的Bug Lake區域一致的礦化風格從單個鑽芯樣本中選擇的。共收集了 180 千克的礦化鑽芯,並將其提交給 SGS 加拿大分公司下屬的 SGS 萊克菲爾德研究設施。SGS 萊克菲爾德是唯一一家獲得 ISO 25 號指南(由 CAN-P-1579 補充的礦物分析)認證的商業實驗室。

SGS Natural Resources analytical laboratories operate under a Quality Management System that conforms to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025. All of SGS' Canadian analytical sites are accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for specific mineral tests listed on the scope of accreditation to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard. ISO/IEC 17025 addresses both the quality management system and the technical aspects of operating a testing laboratory. Physical sample preparation involving accredited test methods as listed on the scope of accreditation may be performed at other sites listed on the SGS Canada Inc – Natural Resources – Minerals group accreditation or at offsite sample preparation laboratories that are monitored regularly for quality control and quality assurance practices, including SGS Canada Inc, Garson, SGS Canada Inc, Val d'Or and SGS Canada Inc, Grand Falls-Windsor.

SGS 自然資源分析實驗室在符合 ISO/IEC 17025 要求的質量管理體系下運行。SGS 的所有加拿大分析場所均獲得加拿大標準委員會 (SCC) 的認可,可進行 ISO/IEC 17025 標準認證範圍內列出的特定礦物測試。ISO/IEC 17025 既涉及質量管理體系,也涉及運營測試實驗室的技術方面。涉及認證範圍中列出的經認可的測試方法的物理樣本製備可在加拿大通用檢驗集團——自然資源——礦產集團認證中列出的其他地點進行,也可以在定期進行質量控制和質量保證措施監測的場外樣本製備實驗室進行,包括加拿大SGS公司、Garson、SGS加拿大公司、Val d'Or和SGS加拿大公司、大瀑布溫莎公司。

Cautionary Notes to United States Investors
Wallbridge prepares its disclosure in accordance with NI 43-101 which differs from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Terms relating to mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources and economic studies used herein are defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under the guidelines set out in CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Council on May 19, 2014, as amended. NI 43-101 differs significantly from the disclosure requirements of the SEC generally applicable to US companies. As such, the information presented herein concerning mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

致美國投資者的警示說明
Wallbridge根據NI 43-101準備披露信息,這與美國證券交易委員會(「SEC」)的要求不同。與礦物特性、礦化、礦產儲量和礦產資源估算以及經濟研究相關的術語是根據加拿大礦業、冶金和石油委員會於2014年5月19日通過的經修訂的《CiM礦產資源和礦產儲量定義標準》中規定的指南根據NI 43-101定義的。NI 43-101與美國證券交易委員會普遍適用於美國公司的披露要求有很大不同。因此,此處提供的有關礦物特性、礦化以及礦產儲量和礦產資源估算的信息可能無法與美國公司根據美國聯邦證券法及其相關規則和條例的報告和披露要求公開的類似信息進行比較。
