We have been experimenting with leaching silver with thiosulfate and
recovery with electrowinning. So far, we have not been succesful.
We are looking for a better way to recover the silver.
For the last fifteen years, we have been testing and evaluating
non-cyanide leachs on Honduras Ores.
We have chosen not to use
cyanide; because of environmental concerns. Our plan is to
reprocess old tailings. No open pit mining,
etc.
