Maritime Resources Corp. of Toronto says 2019 will be a critical year for the company. It plans to advance its Hammerdown gold project in the hope of making a production decision by year-end.<\/p>\n
The past-producing Hammerdown gold mine, Orion gold deposit, and Lochinvar base and precious metals deposit make up Maritime\u2019s Green Bay property near Springdale. Last year, the company sent a Hammerdown metallurgical sample to the Steinert laboratory in Kentucky where the sample was tested for its amenability to ore sorting technology. An independent consultant was hired to conduct a technical review of the now idled Nugget Pond processing plant. It may be possible to add a dedicated grinding circuit and isolate the base mental circuit that is currently being used by Rambler Metals.<\/p>\n Activities this year will include project engineering, additional exploration, and studies in support of environment and permitting activities.<\/p>\n The Hammerdown deposit contains measured and indicated resources of 925,670 tonnes grading 10.6 g\/t gold for 315,535 oz. of gold and inferred resources of 1.6 million tonnes grading 7.53 g\/t for 377,000 oz.<\/p>\n This story first appeared in the\u00a0Canadian Mining Journal<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n The
