Solex Resources (SOX-V) has enlisted SGS Minerals’ metallurgical group to produce a bulk metallurgical test for the company’s Macusani South uranium project in Peru.
SGS is contracted to design, permit and operate a 5-tonne mobile leach test facility to test samples recovered from the project, located in the Macusani uranium district in southern Peru.
“The agreement is a critical step in advancing the Macusani South property in which we can demonstrate, on a larger scale, the viability of the recovery of uranium in a simple leach circuit,” said Jonathan Challis, president and CEO of Solex. “Our goal is to have the facility operational by the end of July and metallurgical data by the end of the year.”
Solex will use SGS’s lab in Lima, Peru, to analyze samples taken from the project.
The Macusani South property is wholly owned by Solex, and along with Macusani South Central and Macusani West, totals 425 sq. km.
