• Liberty Gold reported Phase 6 bulk column leach tests validating run-of-mine heap leach recoveries at the Black Pine oxide gold project in Idaho.
• Seven 10-15 tonne samples in 4-foot-by-20-foot columns averaged 72.4% weighted gold extraction, broadly matching feasibility-study recovery assumptions.
• Rangefront Ppos returned 95% gold extraction at 0.43 g/t, beating modeled recovery by more than 13%, potentially lifting value of material treated as low-value stripping.
• Leach kinetics were rapid, with about 90% of total extraction reached within 36 days, supporting lower-cost ROM processing without crushing.
• Bulk tests also supported feasibility reagent-use estimates; six of seven samples showed adequate permeability under simulated compaction, with one clay-rich exception.
