PAN GLOBAL ACHIEVES EXCELLENT TIN RECOVERIES WITH PHASE TWO METALLURGICAL PROGRAM AT THE LA ROMANA CU-SN-AG DEPOSIT, SPAIN
Pan Global Resources (TSXV: PGZ, OTCQX: PGZFF) announced positive results from its second phase tin metallurgy test program at the La Romana copper-tin-silver deposit in Spain. The tests achieved high tin concentrate grades of 63.2% with recovery rates of 64% using conventional gravity processing.
Key highlights include successful recovery of additional tin from gravity tailings, representing a 10% increase in overall tin recovery. The process demonstrated low levels of penalty elements and uses a simple processing flowsheet with conventional gravity separation for tin and flotation for copper, requiring less energy-intensive grinding compared to other area mines.
The metallurgical work, conducted by Wardell Armstrong International and managed by Minepro Solutions SL, has reached a level suitable for Preliminary Economic Assessment. Next steps may include closed-circuit testing and pilot plant trials for optimization.

Pan Global Resources (TSXV: PGZ, OTCQX: PGZFF) hat positive Ergebnisse aus seinem zweiten Phase des Zinnmetallurgie-Testprogramms im Kupfer-Zinn-Silber-Vorkommen La Romana in Spanien bekannt gegeben. Die Tests erzielten hohe Zinnkonzentrationen von 63,2% mit Rückgewinnungsraten von 64% unter Verwendung von konventioneller Gravitationstechnologie.
Zu den wichtigsten Punkten gehört der erfolgreiche Rückgewinnung von zusätzlichem Zinn aus den Schwerkraft-Rückständen, was eine 10%ige Erhöhung der Gesamtzinnrückgewinnung darstellt. Der Prozess zeigte niedrige Werte an Strafelementen und verwendet ein einfaches Prozessschema mit konventioneller Gravitationstrennung für Zinn und Flotation für Kupfer und benötigt weniger energieintensive Mahlarbeiten im Vergleich zu anderen Bergwerken in der Region.
Die metallurgische Arbeit, die von Wardell Armstrong International durchgeführt und von Minepro Solutions SL verwaltet wird, hat ein Niveau erreicht, das für eine vorläufige Wirtschaftlichkeitsbewertung geeignet ist. Nächste Schritte könnten geschlossene Testkreise und Pilotanlagenversuche zur Optimierung umfassen.

10% - Excellent tin metallurgy results value-adding for La Romana economics
"The testwork on the La Romana mineralization continues to produce excellent metallurgy results for both copper and tin that stand out relative to other mines on the Iberian Pyrite Belt. The new metallurgy tests were highly successful, confirming that additional tin can be recovered from the gravity tails that would otherwise be lost. The tests show La Romana tin mineralization is well suited to conventional gravity separation to produce high-quality, marketable tin concentrate. These results further enhance our view that the tin mineralization could meaningfully add to the overall project economics and de-risking," said Tim Moody, Pan Global's President & CEO.
Key Results:
- A premium high-grade tin concentrate is achievable using conventional gravity separation techniques
- Additional tin concentrate can be efficiently recovered from the gravity tails after both rougher and cleaner stage processing using a shaker table and Multi-Gravity Separator
- Tin recoveries of
63.9% , representing a10% overall increase on previous estimates with additional tin recovered from the gravity tails - High tin concentrate grades of
63.2% - Chemical analysis of the final tin concentrates confirmed low levels of deleterious elements such as arsenic, mercury, and antimony that might incur refining penalties
- Simple processing flowsheet with conventional gravity separation for tin and flotation for copper requiring less energy-intensive fine grinding compared to mines in the area
- Metallurgy work has been done to a level adequate for Preliminary Economic Assessment
- Next steps could include closed-circuit testing, such as pilot plant trials on larger volumes of material to optimize concentrate grades and recoveries for pre-feasibility/feasibility studies.

Second Phase Tailings Testwork Program for Tin
The purpose of this program was to investigate the potential for recovering additional tin from the fine fractions of the gravity tailings after initial processing, and also enhance the overall efficiency of the recovery process and economics of the project.
Initial gravity separation tests proved significantly more effective for recovering tin from tailings compared to flotation methods. Detailed gravity separation tests on the gravity tails were then conducted on two size fractions: coarser (-53+38 microns) and finer (-38 microns). The coarser fraction was processed using conventional shaker tables and the finer fraction was processed using a Multi-Gravity Separator, to produce tin concentrates after both rougher and cleaner stages, and recirculation to enhance the overall recovery efficiency. See Figure 1 below.
Closed-circuit interpretation results
All the metallurgical testwork to recover tin concentrates has been under open-circuit conditions where a portion of tin may be lost or unaccounted for, either as middlings or tailings products. Following the success in recovering additional tin from the finer fraction of the gravity tails, a mass balance calculation was performed by Minepro to simulate what might be achieved under closed-circuit conditions.
The mass balance calculation gave a projected final tin concentrate grade of
