Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share encouraging results from column leach tests on bulk samples at the company’s Philadelphia Project in Arizona. The latest data show a clear benefit from high-pressure grinding roll crushing, with material from the near-surface stockwork gold zone proving highly amenable to heap leach extraction for both gold and silver. After 119 days of leaching, the bulk sample crushed by HPGR to 6.3mm achieved 76% gold recovery and 40% silver recovery, representing a 16% improvement in gold and 12% improvement in silver compared to a parallel test using conventional crushing. Early results were particularly strong, with 51% gold recovery after just four days and 60% after 20 days, suggesting rapid leach kinetics and efficient processing potential. The company is targeting 80% total gold recovery within 150 days at the current crush size. Stark also announced that core drilling has resumed at the project. The next hole, PC25-157, is designed to test 60 meters north of a previously reported high-grade intercept of 20.43 meters grading 9.04 g/t gold and 34 g/t silver in hole PC25-156, targeting the Perry Vein at the same elevation. Stark emphasized that the combination of positive metallurgical results and renewed drilling positions Arizona Gold & Silver for meaningful progress as it continues to advance the Philadelphia Project. #proactiveinvestors #arizonagoldandsilverinc #tsxv #azs #otcqb #azasf #GoldExploration #PhiladelphiaProject #MiningNews #JuniorMining #HeapLeach #Metallurgy #ResourceInvesting #GoldStocks #PreciousMetals #MiningNews #GoldExploration #SilverMining #JuniorMining #ArizonaMining #GoldInvesting #DrillResults #MiningInfrastructure #ProactiveInvestors #perryzone #risingfawnzone #Antimony #CriticalMinerals #ArizonaGoldAndSilver #MiningNews #SilvertonProject #GoldExploration #JointVentureOpportunity #NevadaMining #DrillPermit
