Nicola Mining has shipped approximately 55 dry tonnes (64 wet tonnes) of concentrate produced jointly with Talisker Resources, containing an estimated grade of 97.75 grams gold per tonne. The concentrate grades have improved during the milling process due to enhanced gold capture through gravity and tabling processes. The processing occurs at Nicola's Merritt Mill, a $30.0 million facility that is uniquely positioned as the only facility in British Columbia permitted to accept third-party gold and silver mill feed province-wide. The Company has secured an offtake agreement with Ocean Partners UK for concentrate sales. Additionally, Nicola is currently conducting drilling operations at the Embayment Zone, following drilling at West Craigmont-WP and MARB-CAS targets.
