Sept. 3, 2021
/CNW/ - Elemental Royalties Corp. ("
Elemental
" or "the
Company
") (TSXV: ELE) (OTCQX: ELEMF), a diversified gold royalty company focused on quality,
accretive and revenue-generating acquisitions across established and emerging mining regions, is
pleased to note the announcement by Capricorn Metals Limited ("
Capricorn
") (ASX: CMM) that the
Karlawinda Gold Project is transitioning to steady state operations.
"Only two months from first gold pour, Karlawinda's annualised August production rate of
approximately 115,000 ounces is an excellent achievement and highlights the quality of the project
and management team at Capricorn"
Frederick Bell, CEO of Elemental commented.
"With an
expected increase in throughput processing rates from September and ongoing progress towards
steady state operations, these early production figures are very encouraging."
Karlawinda August Operating Results
Operation generating strong positive cashflow and in good position to achieve goal of steady
state operations by end of September
Estimated 9,800 ounces gold production in August, equivalent to an annualised run rate of
115,400 ounces in only the second month since first gold pour
This annualised rate is equivalent to royalty revenue of approximately
US$4.0 million
for
Elemental at an
US$1,800
/oz gold price
Achieved with a mill availability of 94.8% and in spite of a number of shutdowns for
commissioning and rectification activities
Annualised throughput rate of 4.2 million tonnes per annum using exclusively hard laterite feed in
line with targeted range
Addition of soft oxide ore expected in September should contribute to increased throughput with
a long term targeted range of 4.5 – 5 Mtpa from the oxide and fresh rock blend
Milled grade in line with expectations and gold recovery of 93.5% through the CIL circuit has
been above expectations, allowing a coarse grind to be utilised which assists throughput
Early reconciliation indicates that mining is achieving grade control ounces
