Toro Energy Limited
(ASX:TOE) reports outstanding results from preliminary beneficiation testwork on mineralisation from the Lake Maitland deposit at the Company’s 100% owned Wiluna Uranium Project in Western Australia.
The preliminary testwork resulted in an increase of 4.5 times in the effective grade of the beneficiated concentrate to 9,968 ppm (1.00%1) compared to the feed grade of the sample of 2,209 ppm (0.20%) U3O8. (Table 1).
The aim of the beneficiation steps is to produce a high grade low mass uranium concentrate to feed the leach circuit with minimal uranium losses. Screens and cyclones were used to reject 80% of the total mass whilst maintaining 90% of the total uranium (recovery) (Table 1).
