Bayhorse Silver – Favorable Ore-Sorting Results On Steinert US Equipment
Bayhorse Silver Inc. BHS: TSX-V (the “Company” or “ Bayhorse“) has received favorable initial test results from
testing run-of-mine silver mineralization from the Bayhorse Mine, Oregon, USA., submitted to Steinert US, manufacturer
of state-of–the-art Ore-Sorting equipment.
The Steinert X-Ray Transmission Ore-So rter (XSS) effectively identified and di scriminated between mineralized and
non-mineralized silver bearing material, as well as differentiating higher (above 93 g/t or 3oz/t Ag) from lower (below
93 g/t or 3oz/t Ag) grade mineralization. The XSS rejected 37% from the stream as non mineralized and retained 63% of
the run-of-mine stream. The material was sized between 1 inch (25mm) and 4 inches (100mm), and was comprised of
high grade, low grade, and non-mineralized material.
Steinert X-Ray Transmission Ore-Sorter
The Company will be shipping a larger, approximately 2 ton, sample of the Bayhorse mineralized material to Steinert US,
to establish the crush size for the most effective sorting, and rejection of unmineralized and lower grade (under 93 g/t or 3
oz/t Ag) material. The XSS is designed to sort material at up to 60 tons per hour from material sized at 10 mm (0.35
inch) to 200 mm (8 inches). By narrowing the size range for Ore-Sorting to between 12.5 mm (0.5 inch) to 32.5 mm (1.25
inch) and lowering the hourly throughput, the XSS can achi eve better discrimination between low grade and the higher
grades, and more effectively upgrade the mineralization.
Bayhorse CEO, Graeme O'Neill comments, "By using the XSS we could increase the proposed daily tonnage throughput
from 100 tons/day to 150 tons/day with no other changes to the cu rrent in-place crushing-upgrading circuit. As the XSS
uses no water and has a low power consumption requirement, we believe its use could have a substantial effect in
reducing processing costs and increasing recoverable mineralization."

upside in 2017. http://www.321gold.com/editorials/hamilton/hamilton012717.html
