Eldora Gold Resources Canada Developed New Proprietary Separation Technique


Eldora Gold has developed and is offering a proprietary separation technique for extracting mineral content from mining tailings. Our technology has no up-front cost to the client due to the low capital cost of the equipment.

Eldora Gold will start by verifying the mineral content of the tailings through certified sample testing and, if successful, we will supply the equipment and training necessary to extract the mineral concentrate. We also provide the buyer for the extracted concentrate.

The fee for these services is an agreed upon percentage of the mineral concentrate sale which is typically in the range of one third of the concentrate sale price. The fee to Eldora Gold is only payable after the sale of the concentrate resulting in no risk to the customer.

The technology behind our processing technique is completely chemical free and proprietary. Extensive development and years of experience have resulted in a technique that not only extracts the majority of valuable mineral content of the tailings, it leaves the remaining tailings with a significantly lower content of the acid forming minerals from the original ores.

Tailings have always been an unwanted by-product of mining from an environmental standpoint. These tailings are left in piles and leach environmentally destructive materials into the surrounding soil.

This greatly affects wildlife and water tables for years to come. Our process drastically reduces the acid forming mineral content of these tailings during the mineral extraction process.

The result is cleaner tailings and the extraction of significant amounts of valuable minerals. The sale of the mineral concentrate provides significant profit to the customer and provides the incentive to use our technology to stop the destruction of the environment.

GravSep™ Launched by Eldora Gold Resources


 

Toronto, Canada – Eldora Gold has developed and is offering a proprietary separation technique for extracting mineral content from mining tailings.

Eldora Gold Resources announced the completion of its first pilot plant - GravSep™.  Eldora Gold Resources’ GravSep™ helps on physical separation processes to extract a concentrate from the first selected mill tailings site in Kirkland Lake, Canada. 

Our technology has no up-front cost to the client due to the low capital cost of the equipment. Eldora Gold will start by verifying the mineral content of the tailings through certified sample testing and we will supply the equipment and training necessary to extract the mineral concentrate.

The process includes the preparation of a recirculating water pond. After pulping the excavated feed and pumping the pulp through the physical separation process, Eldora Gold Resources anticipates ultimately discharging a tailing material in a form suitable for environmental rehabilitation of the site.

Based on initial testing, that the auspicious debut (1/2 tonne per hour) of GravSep™ will result in not only the recovery of valued minerals, but also the rehabilitation of former tailings sites.  Given the assembly of its portable equipment, Eldora intends to provide a dual benefit from the operation of GravSep™ units: by marketing the resultant concentrate into suitable channels and also providing a low-energy green solution to mining communities.

The GravSep™ is designed to be scalable, and is suited for small deposits less than 300,000 tonnes that cannot support permanent high capital cost equipment installations.  The anticipated advantages for Eldora’s proprietary environmentally-friendly physical separation processing, which can be tailored to each specific deposit, now include potential  for successful treatment and rehabilitation for many smaller size deposits using simple to maintain and operate equipment, as well as chemical-free processing. Pumping is the single major energy input, and it extracts and recovers valuable mineral concentrates which also have significant deleterious environmental effects when left in-situ.

From an environmental standpoint, tailings have always been an unwanted by-product of mining.  These tailings are left in piles and potentially leach environmentally-destructive materials into the surrounding soil and groundwater.  Processing tailings thus also reduces the negative environmental impact of remaining minerals from the original mining process.

About Eldora Gold Resources

Eldora Gold Resources Canada Inc. is seeking to extract gold from tailings ponds located on inactive metal mine properties.  Based on the company’s expertise and experience in the mining industry, Eldora Gold provides for its clients strategic property evaluations, sample testing of existing tailings, and an environmentally-friendly solution to deliver new gold: GravSep™.

Eldora Gold Resources Set to Showcase GravSep™ at Upcoming PDAC Conference in Canada


(Toronto) – Held annually in Toronto, the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) produces the world’s leading convention and trade show for the mineral exploration industry. Eldora Gold is pleased to announce it will be participating in the Prospectors Tent at PDAC 2011, excited to showcase both GravSep™ and early results from the Kirkland Lake project.  The PDAC Trade Show attracts 22,000 delegates from 118 countries, and features 400 exhibitors showcasing the latest technologies, products, services and mining jurisdictions to the global mining industry.
The sold out Trade Show, appeals to critical decision-makers within companies, organizations and governments, and provides Eldora Gold an excellent forum to renew international acquaintances and introduce GravSep™ to possible strategic partners.  Also joining these decision makers are consultants, exploration managers and development professionals, geoscientists, prospectors, mining service sector representatives and mining media from around the globe.
To promote the company, target potential clients and foster new business opportunities, Eldora Gold will operate Booth 3207, March 6-9 2011.  Eldora Gold has developed and is offering a physical separation process, called GravSep™, for extracting mineral content from tailings.  
Upon conducting sample testing and evaluating those results, Eldora Gold’s Tailings Processing division intends to set up a milling operation on its first prioritized tailings disposal site in Kirkland Lake.  Extracted concentrates will contain the majority of the minerals with recoverable metallic values residing in the tailings, which coincidentally are the minerals responsible for the adverse environmental consequences of the original tailings’ disposal.
Profitably addressing the critical clean-up challenges that face owners of former mining sites globally, the chemical-free GravSep™ process enables niche deposits to be considered for successful treatment and rehabilitation, while extracting and recovering valuable mineral concentrates which have significant deleterious environmental effects when left in-situ.  Eldora Gold provides portable and simple to maintain equipment that can be specifically tailored to each deposit.
Tailings have always been an unwanted byproduct of mining from an environmental standpoint, greatly affecting wildlife and water tables for years to come.  GravSep™ drastically reduces the acid forming mineral content of these tailings during the mineral extraction process.  The result is cleaner tailings. The profitable sale of the recovered mineral concentrate provides the incentive to use Eldora Gold technology to stop the destruction of the environment.

Eldora Gold Resources News: Gold Prices Hit Record High Amid Stock Market Jitters



The price of gold hit record highs on Monday as jittery investors sent stock and bond markets plunging amid fears that the eurozone and US debt crises could lead the world into another recession.

AFP - Gold soared to record highs Monday as investors sought its traditional safety, leaving stock and bond markets with losses on fears the eurozone and US debt crises combined could spark another recession.
Gold topped $1,600 dollars an ounce for the first time as nervous markets looked ahead to a make-or-break eurozone summit Thursday in hopes that this time, leaders might finally come up with a deal to stop the rot.
Negotiations meanwhile continued in Washington with just two weeks to avert a catastrophic debt default as US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner pointed to progress -- but also warned of the dire consequences of failure.
A US debt default "would bring the world economy... because of the critical role we play in the global economy, to the edge of recession again. And again, it's not an option we can consider," Geithner said.
Eldora Gold Resources News: In London, the benchmark FTSE 100 index of top shares lost 1.55 percent to 5,752.81 points. In Frankfurt, the DAX fell 1.55 percent to 7,107.92 points while in Paris the CAC 40 lost 2.04 percent to 3,650.71 points, its lowest point of the year.
In Italy -- seen with Spain as the next most at risk after Greece, Ireland and Portugal were bailed out -- the stockmarket slumped more than three percent and other European bourses were also badly hit. Madrid was down 1.44 percent.
The banks suffered as investors fretted over their exposure to debt-stricken eurozone countries and worry that the crisis is undercutting the economy.
European Banking Authority stress test results Friday, showing only eight out of 90 lenders failed, did little to reassure since the reviews did not include a possible sovereign debt default -- the most crucial issue for many as officials try to agree another rescue for Greece.
Kathleen Brooks at Forex.com said the markets want "Europe to sing with one voice, make decisions quickly to resolve Greece’s problems (and) show markets there is someone in control of the situation.
"Right now, none of the branches of power within the EU are doing that so investors are selling euro-based assets," Brooks said.
On the forex market, the euro fell sharply to $1.4041 from $1.4156 late Friday in New York while the dollar was firmer at 79.16 yen after 79.12 yen.
Gold closed at $1,599, up from $1,587 late Friday but off a record high of $1,607.46.
"Money continues to move out of equities and into gold as ongoing eurozone debt concerns continue to gather momentum," said ETX Capital trader Manoj Ladwa.
"While the precious metal trades up at all-time highs, European stocks are trading sharply lower as borrowing costs for sovereign debt soars."
"Investors are now adding real fears of a US default to go along with their European sovereign worries," said Spread Co analyst Ian O'Sullivan.
In New York, it was the same picture with the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average slumping 1.37 percent at around 1615 GMT while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite tumbled 1.55 percent.
Dealers said the only hope now was strong company results but even stellar figures will not be enough without some progress on the debt impasse on both sides of the Atlantic.
"The question now is, can better-than-expected earnings supplant macro concerns as the main market driver?" said Patrick O'Hare, an analyst with Briefing.com.
"Probably not but what they will do is lay a foundation for a robust relief rally in the event a palatable deal on the debt limit can be reached and EU leaders can pacify participants with a plan that stems debt contagion concerns in the eurozone."
In Asian trade earlier Monday, markets were weaker but trade was quiet with Tokyo closed for a public holiday. Hong Kong fell 0.32 percent, Shanghai lost 0.12 percent and Sydney ended flat.

Eldora Gold Resources Launches GravSep™; Process Set to Rehabilitate Tailings Sites


(Toronto) – Eldora Gold proudly announces it has completed the assembly of its premiere pilot plant, dubbed GravSep™, to assist with the extensive process testing phase.  With GravSep™ on site, Eldora will use a combination of physical separation processes to extract a concentrate from the first selected mill tailings site in Kirkland Lake, Canada.  This concentrate will contain the majority of the recoverable metallic values in these former tailings, as well as the majority of the minerals responsible for the adverse environmental consequences of the original tailings disposal.

The proprietary process includes the preparation of a recirculating water pond, whereby final tailing separation from pulping water will provide recirculating water for pulping fresh feed, thus no continuous use of fresh water is required. After pulping the excavated feed and pumping the pulp through the physical separation process, Eldora anticipates ultimately discharging a tailing material in a form suitable for environmental rehabilitation of the site.
Eldora Gold anticipates, based on initial testing, that the auspicious debut (1/2 tonne per hour) of GravSep™ will result in not only the recovery of valued minerals, but also the rehabilitation of former tailings sites.  Given the assembly of its portable equipment, Eldora intends to provide a dual benefit from the operation of GravSep™ units: by marketing the resultant concentrate into suitable channels and also providing a low-energy green solution to mining communities.
