Pensana plc (LON:PRE) has provided an update on the beneficiation test work on samples from the Sulima West deposit on the Coola exploration licence located 75 kilometres north of Longonjo.
The test work is being undertaken to determine whether the mineralogy at Sulima West is amenable to simple upgrading onsite, prior to transporting to Longonjo for further processing.
The initial results on the samples tested are very encouraging. Both samples tested show the potential for separation and upgrading to a high-grade concentrate using simple magnetic and gravity processes.
Once the test work has been finalised a drill programme will be undertaken to delineate the extent of the near surface mineralisation over the six-hectare target area at Sulima West.
