New Pacific Metals (TSX:NUAG, NYSE:NEWP) Corp CEO Dr Mark Cruise joined Proactive to discuss its results of latest metallurgical testing on its flagship Silver Sand project in Bolivia.
Dr Cruise says it expects to advance the project as a low-cost, open-pit heap leach operation.
He says the heap leach process showed 80% recovery and is a superior option due to the expected lower capital intensity and operational costs compared to alternatives to produce silver doré on site.
