Held annually in Toronto, the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) produces the world's leading convention and trade show for the mineral exploration industry.
(1888PressRelease) January 14, 2011 - Eldora Gold is pleased to announce it will be participating in the Prospectors Tent at PDAC 2011, excited to showcase both GravSep™ and early results from the Kirkland Lake project. The PDAC Trade Show attracts 22,000 delegates from 118 countries, and features 400 exhibitors showcasing the latest technologies, products, services and mining jurisdictions to the global mining industry.
The sold out Trade Show, appeals to critical decision-makers within companies, organizations and governments, and provides Eldora Gold an excellent forum to renew international acquaintances and introduce GravSep™ to possible strategic partners. Also joining these decision makers are consultants, exploration managers and development professionals, geoscientists, prospectors, mining service sector representatives and mining media from around the globe.
To promote the company, target potential clients and foster new business opportunities, Eldora Gold will operate Booth 3207, March 6-9 2011. Eldora Gold has developed and is offering a physical separation process, called GravSep™, for extracting mineral content from tailings.
Upon conducting sample testing and evaluating those results, Eldora Gold's Tailings Processing division intends to set up a milling operation on its first prioritized tailings disposal site in Kirkland Lake. Extracted concentrates will contain the majority of the minerals with recoverable metallic values residing in the tailings, which coincidentally are the minerals responsible for the adverse environmental consequences of the original tailings' disposal.
Profitably addressing the critical clean-up challenges that face owners of former mining sites globally, the chemical-free GravSep™ process enables niche deposits to be considered for successful treatment and rehabilitation, while extracting and recovering valuable mineral concentrates which have significant deleterious environmental effects when left in-situ. Eldora Gold provides portable and simple to maintain equipment that can be specifically tailored to each deposit.
Tailings have always been an unwanted byproduct of mining from an environmental standpoint, greatly affecting wildlife and water tables for years to come. GravSep™ drastically reduces the acid forming mineral content of these tailings during the mineral extraction process. The result is cleaner tailings. The profitable sale of the recovered mineral concentrate provides the incentive to use Eldora Gold technology to stop the destruction of the environment.
