## Minestarters Atlas summary

Sanu Gold has reported encouraging initial cyanide leach test results from its Daina and Diguifara gold projects in Guinea. Average gold recoveries were 94% at Daina and 91% at Diguifara, with consistent performance observed across oxide, transition, and fresh rock material.

Reasoning: Initial screening metallurgical testwork shows strong gold recoveries across multiple projects and ore types, supporting conventional processing.

- Positive factor: High average gold recoveries \(&gt;90%\) at both Daina and Diguifara

- Positive factor: Consistent performance across weathering profiles \(oxide, transition, fresh\)

- Positive factor: Supports conventional cyanide leach processing

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**High Recovery**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Recovery at or above the exceptional band for the commodity and processing route.

Why it applies: Gold recoveries of 94% at Daina and 91% at Diguifara exceed the exceptional band for cyanide leach.

Evidence · text

> average gold recovery of 94% from 45 samples at Daina and 91% from 91 samples at Diguifara

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\).

Why it applies: Results support conventional gold processing methods \(cyanide leach\).

Evidence · text

> supporting the potential for conventional gold processing methods

**Bench Scale Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Only preliminary bench tests completed — no locked-cycle or pilot work.

Why it applies: The results are described as initial screening/preliminary testwork on selected drill samples, not composite or pilot scale.

Evidence · text

> The preliminary screening programme supports more detailed metallurgical studies using representative composite samples

**Multi-Domain Tested**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Variability across ore domains \(oxide, transition, fresh\) has been addressed.

Why it applies: 2 distinct composites were tested

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
