Aton Reports New Results From Metallurgical Testing on Abu Marawat Oxide, Transition and Sulphide Mineralisation
Aton Resources reports encouraging preliminary metallurgical testwork results from its Abu Marawat deposit in Egypt, covering oxide, transitional, and sulphide mineralisation. The tests show high gold extractions (up to 90.7%) via conventional cyanide leaching and the ability to produce saleable copper and zinc concentrates with precious metal credits. While high reagent consumption and challenging zinc depression in transitional ores were noted, the overall results support the project's economic viability and will inform an upcoming mineral resource estimate update.
