Golden Rim kicks off scoping study at Paguanta zinc-silver-lead project in Chile

Golden Rim Resources Ltd. kicked off a scoping study at its 73%-owned Paguanta zinc-silver-lead project in Chile, according to the Dec. 14 release.

The scoping study will assess the viability of a 500-tonne-per-day underground mining operation at Paguanta at current metal prices, using the updated JORC-complaint mineral resource of 2.4 million tonnes grading 8% zinc equivalent for 190,000 contained tonnes of zinc equivalent.

The proposed operation would produce lead-silver concentrate grading 55% lead, 9.3% zinc and 3,500 g/t of silver, and zinc concentrate grading 52% zinc, 1.8% lead and 230 g/t of silver.

Results from the scoping study are expected in about eight weeks.

Costa Rica Dos owns the remaining 27% stake in the Paguanta project.
