Plant commissioning along with construction of mine facilities is well underway;
Delivery of the elution heater/heat exchanger, requisite equipment for the gold room, and the completion of Stage 1 of the Tailings Storage Facility remain as the critical paths to bringing the Balabag Mine online with first doré production.
Balabag Gold-Silver Project:
Commissioning of the front-end circuits of the process plant is continuing and has included low grade ore being fed through the crushing area for the purpose of debugging the Mill. Testing of the crushing area, the grinding and flotation circuits, the power plant and water supply are complete. Finishing details of construction and commissioning of the concentrate leach circuit, the Carbon In Leach ("CIL") area and the detox plant facility are ongoing.
Further recently completed works include construction of the administration building and warehouse, while works are continuing on the reagents storage facility and laboratory. Electrical and piping works are continuing in the gold room where equipment is also now being installed, including the furnace and electrowinning equipment.
Other ongoing works include piping works in the Merrill Crowe circuit and completion of the last permanent camp facilities; namely, the superintendent building.
Critical remaining works include installation of the elution heater/heat exchanger in the gold room upon arrival to site and completion of the Tailings Storage Facility ("TSF") where stripping and removal of waste materials and the placement, spreading and compaction of numerous layers is continuing. As reported previously, progress at the TSF has been affected in part by above average rainfall.
Current Balabag project development photos can be found on the Company website at TVIPacific.com.
"We commend the team in having reached the commissioning stage of the plant and facilities. The success that has been realized thus far through that process represents a major achievement in the development of Balabag when considering also the additional challenges placed upon the site team including the supply chain logistics of equipment and supplies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our focus is now turning fully to completion of the TSF as a critical path item.", said Mr. Cliff James, Chairman and CEO of TVI and Chairman of TVIRD.
