Atlanta Gold Inc. has completed transporting and crushing 107 of the 145 tons of bulk sample material from the Atlanta Shear Zone at the company's Atlanta gold project in Idaho. The crushed sample was then delivered to KRC's pad for processing. The original 145-ton bulk sample was excavated from four existing surface trenches. The trenches are approximately 150 feet (45.7 meters) apart and are open cuts across the Main Shear Zone east of the Monarch Shaft above the 6800-foot elevation. The proposed system of metallurgical recovery from the test processing plant has been successfully applied and achieved high gold recovery rates at a similar deposit within a 50-mile (80-kilometer) radius of the Atlanta property. The pilot scale model will be used to test the recovery of precious metals from the bulk sample and the company expects to reduce the 107 tons of feed material to less than 1,000 pounds of gold and silver concentrate. No chemicals will be added because the gravity processing system only uses water.
