This initiative will enable ESGold to model the Montauban deposit comprehensively, identifying high-priority drill targets to be pursued once production revenue supports further exploration.
The Significance of Montauban and VMS Deposits
Montauban's geology, rich in gold, silver, and base metals, has already produced over
$1.4 billion in historical value.VMS deposits, known for their scale and clustering, offer district-wide opportunities, with notable neighbors such as Rio Tinto flanking ESGold's land package.
Clean Mining Innovation: Leading the Future
ESGold remains steadfast in its commitment to advancing environmentally responsible mining practices through its Clean Processing Initiative. Collaborating with Dundee Sustainable Technologies and other leading vendors, the Company is exploring non-cyanide technologies designed to enhance recovery rates, minimize environmental impact, and optimize project economics.
