$Monument Progresses Flotation Plant Construction at the Selinsing Gold Mine in Malaysia V.MMY VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Monument Mining Limited (TSX-V: MMY and FSE: D7Q1) ("Monument" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the progress on flotation plant construction at the Selinsing Gold Mine in Malaysia to produce saleable sulphide gold concentrates. The flotation plant construction includes: project management, project validation, flotation design and engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning. Charlie Northfield, General Manager and the Project Sponsor at the Selinsing Gold Mine, commented: “I am thrilled to report that we are on schedule for construction completion in June 2022. To mitigate the risk of delays that might be caused by the Covid 19 pandemic from time to time, we are making our best efforts to advance deliverables ahead of the schedule. Our ability to move quickly is a testament to the capacity and experience of the on-site team. We will provide further updates on the flotation plant construction process in the weeks to come.”
Project Management
The project management team is led by the oversight board chaired by Cathy Zhai, President and CEO, comprising Project Sponsor, Project Manager, Project Controller and the Plant Manager as the end user. The procurement and engineering team on site are Selinsing employees. The majority of key project personnel participated in the existing Selinsing gold plant construction work back in 2008 to 2010. Six new employees will be recruited at different times in the construction and four personnel seconded from the existing Selinsing workforce.
Detailed Engineering Design
Following completion of independent flotation testwork and amendment of conceptual design of the flotation plant by Orway Mineral Consultants (“OMC”) (refer to July 6th 2021 news release), the contract for detailed engineering design was awarded to Mincore Pty Ltd. (“Mincore”), an Australia based engineering company.
The scope of work undertaken by Mincore included: the development of the 3D model of the flotation processing plant, preparation of equipment specifications and data sheets, and development of the control system for the new process equipment. Plant design aims to maximize gravity flow and to provide plant access for maintenance while allowing the current gravity / CIL plant operation to continue without interruption. The plant layout design allows for the future addition of the proposed BIOX® circuit and ancillary works.
Up to September 30th 2021 Mincore has achieved 80% completion of the design work. HAZOP design reviews have been carried out for the new process facilities to identify and mitigate any operational safety issues. Civil and structural drawings are scheduled for completion on October 31st 2021; mechanical and piping drawings will be issued for construction by November 30th 2021.
Lim Teck Chong, Flotation Plant Project Manager, commented: “The successful flotation testwork gave us the green light to proceed with all aspects of the development of the project. The detailed engineering design is approaching completion and the pilot plant is expected to be completed this month. Procurement, earthworks, and recruitment have all progressed as we ramp up and prepare for civil foundation work to begin.”
Procurement of long lead equipment items has been completed and contracts have been awarded for the supply of flotation cells, concentrate and water recovery thickeners, and the concentrate filter press. Technical and financial appraisals have been completed and contracts are being prepared for the air blowers, compressor, slurry pumps and 11kV/415V transformer. Procurement is continuing for the motor control centre, agitators, reagent pumps and plate work for conditioning and reagent tanks.
The flotation pilot plant has been delivered to site and is currently being set up at the research and development laboratory. The pilot plant features a ball mill and classifier, rougher/scavenger flotation cells and three stages of cleaner flotation to replicate the flowsheet of the full scale flotation plant. The pilot plant will be used for operator training, reagent trials, and for the preparation of concentrate samples for potential customers. The pilot plant is expected to be fully operational before the end of October 2021.
Risk control over the long lead items is focused on periodical inspection and shipping scheduling, which faces global challenges during the pandemic period.
Construction
Flotation construction includes: earthworks, civil engineering, structural engineering, mechanical and electrical installation and other associated plant upgrades.
Contractor Engagement: Suitably experienced Malaysian contractors have been shortlisted for the construction work according to discipline comprising: civil and structural, mechanical and piping, and electrical and instrumentation. Most of these contractors have worked on previous construction phases of the Selinsing operation. The contract has been awarded to reroute the power cables to the primary and secondary ball mills outside of the new flotation plant footprint to avoid any interference during construction work.
Civil Foundation Work: 75% of the earthworks have been completed for the plant foundations, and final excavations will be conducted once civil drawings have been issued for construction. Civil foundation work is expected to commence in early November, starting with the construction of the retaining wall extension, and followed by civil works in the flotation area, concentrate and water recovery thickeners and the filter press building. At the same time the foundations will be constructed for the new warehouse, reagents mixing and air services buildings.
Transition to Flotation
The production of flotation concentrate is expected to commence in July 2022 as soon as all of the flotation cells, concentrate thickener and filter press have been commissioned. In the current production schedule the CIL plant will continue operation until commissioning of the flotation plant commences. We will keep the production going as long as possible to generate cash flow primarily from Selinsing, Buffalo Reef pits and the Peranggih Prospect, provided that readers shall understand that there might be an interruption to production due to the Covid pandemic, and there might be volatility of production in transition to the new life of mine from the existing remaining life of mine.
During the period from late August to the beginning of October, while the CIL plant has continued operation throughout the time, the elution heat exchanger however has been offline after 10 years’ of service, and the spare was unexpectedly found to have failed. Gold pours were put on hold until October when the unit was re-built and back in service. A suitable replacement heat exchanger has been located in Kuala Lumpur and an order has been placed to secure this unit and delivery is awaited. The Company keeps its repair and maintenance program going to ensure sustained production as planned.

Darkness Coming Dollar Falls – Bo Polny By Greg Hunter On October 9, 2021 In Political Analysis 14 Comments By Greg Hunter‘s USAWatchdog.com (Saturday Night Post)
Geo-political and financial analyst Bo Polny has long said “. . . Nothing can stop these people aside from a Biblical intervention from God.” According to Polny’s Biblical cycle and timing charts, that’s exactly what is likely going to happen by the end of the year. It all centers around the value of the U.S. dollar. Polny explains, “Bitcoin, years ago, was under a dollar. Then it was a dollar. Then it was ten bucks. Then it was a hundred, and then it was a $1,000. All they can do is keep bashing it with news and say how horrible it is. Ultimately, the most horrible currency in the world is the U.S. dollar. The U.S. dollar is the root of all evil.
Polny says America’s story is about to run parallel to the Bible story of Lazarus, who was brought back to life by Christ after four days buried in a dark tomb. Polny says, “In the United States right now, we have gone in the wrong direction. We have been controlled by evil, and so the United States must fall. This is going to be like the Baptism moment. You die to be reborn. So, the United States is about to fall, and it’s going to look horrible. It’s going to look like God has abandoned us. How do you think it looked for Lazarus when he was in the tomb? He was dead. Lazarus and the United States are playing similar rolls. These are cycles, and that which has been will be again. . . . I am going to continue with the story, and it all ties in with the dollar and the United States. Jesus said, ‘This illness (for Lazarus) does not lead to death.’ . . . The fall of the United States is for the glory of God so that the Son of man can be glorified through it. . . .When the United States falls, people are ultimately going to wake up. This is about waking up the church.”
When could this take place? Bo says, “I think sometime in November the United States goes dark. . . . The land will rumble. Power will stumble and evil will crumble. This is what’s coming, and these are the events that we are super close to seeing. This will lead into what is called ‘Hypnotic November’ and death to life. . . . The United States will be reborn to shine once again for all the world to see. . . . We have the great awakening coming, and this will cause gold and silver to lift. . . .The dollar is an instrument that is about to go down. Because it no longer has a contract with Saudi Arabia because Russia got one, it’s about to lose its world reserve status. It’s about to go down, and the question is have you positioned yourself for what’s about to happen?”
Polny goes on to say, “You want to talk about bondage? Look what happened with the election. All it was were bribes and payoffs and nothing more than that. They are trying to control the military . . . they control social media. You know they control FOX News and all the major news stations and everything. . . . This whole money system is disgusting. Each one of these categories is a gate to hell. They control everything to the gates to hell through their money system. The gates of hell shall not prevail.”
In closing, Polny says, “The money system we have today is not attached to gold, and it’s no longer attached to oil. It’s free floating, and the only thing that is holding it up is faith and confidence. How confident do you feel right now with what is going on in the United States? . . . A massive event is coming, and unless the dollar falls, nothing changes. Hollywood won’t change. The banking system won’t change. The media won’t change. Nothing will change. . . .Everything that was held up by the dollar is about to go down.”

$Monument Mining (TSXV:MMY) PM Note; The sluggish jobs market could pressure the Fed to forestall any radical departure from current stimulus policies and add to market concerns over inflation.
Charlie Morris, the London-based publisher of the Atlas Pulse Gold Report, says that inflation is proving to be “not so transitory… and this is where silver comes in.”
“Many say silver is gold on crack,” he explains, “but that’s not the whole story.
Gold responds to lower interest rates like the long bond, whereas silver lags gold in that scenario.
Silver only responds when inflation expectations are rising, and that’s when it really outperforms gold.”
He goes on to say that “silver loves inflation even more than gold … If the spike move in inflation expectations continues, I would reasonably expect silver to outperform gold from here.
But remember, silver is riskier and more volatile but does the same job as gold over the long-term.”

Analyst Brien Lundin offered a short overview of the technical factors at play in the gold and silver markets and came away with a cautiously positive outlook. “For its part,” he writes, “silver never delivered the buy signal that gold did, but seemed about to. It remains in that state, still with a sell signal, but in the area where we would expect a rebound. That’s because, when monetary issues are driving the metals and supportive of higher prices, gold and silver have tended to hit these bottoms in the 14-week stochastic and quickly reverse higher. So a rebound seems not only inevitable for fundamental reasons, but perhaps imminent on the technical evidence. In fact, as we’re putting this issue to bed, gold has bounced as much as $40. Most of that gain came after Powell, in testimony before the House, noted that the U.S. economy is ‘far away from full employment.’ Let’s grant that he’s also angling for re-appointment, but also recognize that gold is at extremely oversold levels and therefore primed for some sort of rally.”

$bigone Note; Let's see gold not just as real money but as the “original” money.
Thus, gold is the measure of value for everything else – including the US dollar.
“The US dollar, has lost somewhere between 98-99% of its purchasing power over the past one hundred years.
When the gold price hit $2060 oz. last August, it was a one hundred-fold increase over the past century and represented a ninety-nine percent loss in US dollar purchasing power.
In inflation-adjusted terms, $2060 oz. in August 2020 is nearly identical to $1895 oz. in August 2011.
Both peaks equate similarly to a ninety-nine percent loss in US dollar purchasing power.
$Monument Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2021 Results September 24, 2021
$Gross Revenue of $23.24 Million and Cash Cost of US$1,178/Oz
Vancouver, B.C., September 24, 2021,
$Monument Mining Limited (TSX-V: MMY and FSE: D7Q1) “Monument” or the “Company” today announced its annual financial results for the year ended June 30, 2021. All amounts are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated (refer to www.sedar.com for full financial results).
President and CEO Cathy Zhai commented: “During this fiscal year, Monument has focused on consolidating the asset portfolio by spinning off the Mengapur base metal project and placing the Tuckanarra Gold Project into a joint venture.
The restructured gold focused portfolio provides potential catalysts for re-rating the share price going forward into fiscal 2022 and beyond for our shareholders.
“For the same reason, as of June 30, 2021, we established a solid financial position with $38.62 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand.
The strengthened cash reserves allow us to support and implement the corporate value creation strategies, especially to fund the Selinsing gold treatment plant expansion and exploration of Murchison.
Monument is open to all corporate development opportunities to optimize our future growth and shareholders value moving forward”.
Ms. Zhai further commented: “With the continued challenges from the global Covid-19 pandemic that caused more than six weeks mine shut down during the year, Selinsing Gold Mine produced positive cash flow in 2021 from mining super-low grade ore, leachable sulphide ore and Peranggih materials, which has brought our aggregated Selinsing Gold Mine production to 325,509 ounces at an average cost of $535 per ounce with gross revenue of $452.1 million, gross margin of $279.3 million and net cash from production of $275 million.
Looking forward, our management team will continue to work hard with the “Can Do” attitude and the philosophy of “being a doer” in delivering our commitment to our shareholders.”
Fiscal 2021 Highlights:
Restructured assets to a gold focused portfolio by spinning out Mengapur copper and iron project;
Two staged Selinsing gold plant conversion with the flotation plant construction commenced and fully funded;
Murchison Project exploration strategized to test potential gold discovery and upside;
Tuckanarra Joint ventured with Odyssey fast tracking exploration and development;
Selinsing Gold Mine continued with leachable sulphide ore production transitioning to new life of mine Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2021 Production and Financial Highlights
Though the prospect of tapering has acted as a drag on the gold price over the past several weeks, Gold Newsletter’s Brien Lundin believes its reality will come as a relief.
“As you know,” he says in a recently issued advisory, “my view is that the actual initiation of QE tapering could be a launching pad for gold, much as the Fed’s initial rate hike in December 2015 ended gold’s long bear market.
The actual removal of accommodation seems to also remove selling pressure on gold from speculators betting on that event.
If so, then the expected catalyst isn’t long in coming.…
How they’re going to buy less Treasurys as Congress and the Biden administration add trillions upon trillions in deficit spending is beyond me, but my expectations have always been that the markets won’t allow Powell & Co. to get very far down the road of policy normalization anyway.
That underpins my long-term view that much higher gold and silver prices are ahead.”
$News Releases - Monument Announces Completion of Upscaled Phase 1 Drilling in the Field at the Murchison Gold Project September 20, 2021 Vancouver, B.C., September 20, 2021,
$Monument Mining Limited (TSX-V: MMY and FSE: D7Q1) “Monument” or the “Company” is pleased to announce the successful completion of an upscaled Phase 1 18,000 metre air core (“AC”) and reverse circulation (“RC”) drill program at its Murchison Gold Project in Western Australia.
Highlights
Completion of 46 RC holes for 3,465 metres targeting the Munro Bore Extension target as well as the FLC2 and FLC3 prospects, within the Burnakura Project Area. Hole depths ranged from 40 to 160 metres and were located outside of the current resource areas.
A total of 349 AC holes were completed for 10,484 metres focusing on high quality structural targets defined from geophysical surveys in areas of shallow cover.
The Munro Bore mineralized structure has an extension into Monument’s tenement (“Munro Bore Extension”). Geological mapping and interpretation of the completed drilling is in progress, and subject to results obtained, follow up drill programs will be planned.
All of the samples generated from the drilling have been delivered to ALS Geochemistry, Perth, and results are expected to be received between October and November 2021.
A drill program consisting of over 5,500 metres of combined RC and diamond drilling (“DD”) targeting beneath open pits along the high- grade North of Alliance (“NOA”) structure is at an advanced planning stage and selection of a drill contractor is in progress.
Monument commenced its Phase 1 AC and RC drill program on July 3rd 2021 (as announced on July 20th 2021) and completed it by August 21st 2021 (Figure 1).
This first phase of drilling was designed to test new high quality structural targets beneath cover for potential mineralization that may lead to the identification of shallow stand alone or satellite gold deposits to supplement the current resource base.
In addition, the drilling tested the strike continuation at Munro Bore Extension that is adjacent to Munro Bore (not owned by Monument).
Munro Bore has estimated historical resources of 266,000t at 1.6g/t Au (reported in “Technical Project Review and Independent Valuation Report (Short Form)” prepared by Giralia Resources NL and reviewed by Ravensgate Mining Industry Consultants in January 2011).
A total of 46 RC holes for 3,465m were completed against a plan of 12 holes for 1,260m, comprised of 1,301m for the planned Munro Bore Extension and additional 2,164m for the FLC2 and FLC3 prospects that was originally planned in the phase two.
It was brought forward to take advantage of increased drill rig availability.
A total of 349 AC holes were completed for 10,484m at the Authaal East, Burnakura South and Junction targets against a plan of 430 AC holes for 16,680m at Munro Bore Extension, Banderol South and Junction.
The targets were tested as planned except the eastern line of the Junction target was not drilled due to steep terrain.
The depth to blade refusal was generally less than anticipated resulting in fewer metres drilled than originally planned.
Drill holes were angled at 60 degrees and generally spaced at 25m with lines spaced at between 400m to 950m.
With Monuments sufficient cash to cover all near term project expenditures :-)) and still have significant surplus for contingencies - MMY are very well situated to begin adding cash from current and near term project cash flows.

Based on the 2017 GC drilling program which identified a high grade zone measuring 150 m by 80 m in P North ( see Fig 1 in link below ) management estimated this this GC zone contained 20,000 to 30,000 ounces....see link to 2017 NR below.
The recently completed 5002 m GC drilling of this Zone elicited this statement from management..
The GC delineated indicates;
54.2% higher contained ounces, 63% higher gold grade, and 5.2% less tonnage gold materials to be extracted than the initial assay results from 2017 GC drilling program at the same area.
So in just this small zone, we now have at least 31,000 to 47,000 ounces of even higher grade gold within a lesser volume of ore.
I had earlier missed this implication .
They are now telling us that we have a significant new gold deposit at Peranghi whose size will eventually describe a substantially new oxide resource once P North and the other 3 high grade zones are fully explored.
My earlier analyses of these 4 zones showed in excess of 120,000 ounces.
This discovery completely alters the future perspective for mining at Selinsing.....no rush to fund Biox as we have new and substantial sources of high grade oxides for years to come
