Tampia gold project, Australia
Name of the Project
Tampia gold project.
Location
The project is located about 300 km east of Perth, in the wheat belt of Western Australia.
Client
Explaurum.
Project Description
Early-stage and limited drilling programmes undertaken to date on the Tampia project to define the established 2012 Joint Ore Reserves Committee- (Jorc-) compliant inferred resource of 310 000 oz gold at a grade of 2 g/t gold have provided considerable encouragement for Explaurum that there is significant exploration upside near the deposit and more regionally.
A scoping study, based on the inferred mineral resource, has shown a strong motivation for the project to progress to the next stage of Explaurum’s exploration and development programme.
The study has clearly established that a standalone operation is the preferred long-term development scenario.
The metallurgical flowsheet design includes primary crushing, milling and classification; flotation and regrind; leaching and adsorption; an elution circuit; and a gold room.
An average metallurgical recovery of 85% was assumed in the study.

Latest Developments
A prefeasibility study (PFS) has started and is due to be completed in late 2017.
The PFS will aim to develop a 2012 Joint Ore Reserves Committee-compliant measured and indicated resource, and establish and optimise the mining schedule, production rate and process flowsheet, while reducing capital and operating costs.
