New Carolin Gold Receives Test Plant Effluent Approval from Ministry of Environment
(via Thenewswire.ca)
New Carolin Gold Corp. (TSX - V: LAD) announces receipt of approval
from the British Columbia Ministry of Environment to discharge
tailings reclamation test plant effluent from the former Carolin Mine
tailings storage facility, subject to regulatory monitoring
requirements. The test plant effluent will be discharged back to the
tailings storage facility.
This approval allows New Carolin Gold to conduct field scale sampling
of the tailings in order to collect material for ongoing metallurgical
test work to complete the gold in tailings process flow sheet. This
will allow the tailings "gold reclaim" mine plan to be
finalized and for the company to advance to the processing stage. A
Preliminary Economic Assessment was the subject of a press release
dated March 14, 2012.
The Company regards this approval as a major step towards granting of
the waste discharge effluent permit that will be required for the
proposed tailings mining and future re-activation of the Carolin Mine.
The original effluent permit was cancelled when the mine ceased
operations in 1984. Some of the regulatory monitoring requirements
have been implemented since 2009 and additional requirements will be
completed in Q3. The tailings storage facility has been inspected on
an annual basis by independent consultants and is in excellent
condition.
