With an existing inferred resource of 6.2 million ounces of gold, AurMac offers coveted scale in a premier mining jurisdiction. Banyan is conducting systematic exploration and technical studies that could fast-track this sizable asset into Banyan’s targeted development window of 2026-2028.In 2022, Banyan achieved a key milestone in substantially growing the AurMac resource. An aggressive 50,000 meter drill program more than met expectations by elevating the project over 6 million ounces of gold. Demonstrating resource expansion at economic grades was viewed as pivotal in elevating Banyan's investment credentials.Banyan subsequently connected the project’s two primary gold zones through another 25,000 meters of focused exploration drilling in 2023. Assay results are still pending, offering significant potential share price catalysts as ongoing discoveries are revealed.With resource expansion established, Banyan has turned attention to equally important economic and technical studies aimed at optimizing conceptual development plans. Metallurgical test work is analyzing upside scenarios spanning simpler heap leaching through to full processing plants. Banyan’s goal is to provide maximum flexibility for the lowest costs, tailoring project design to prevailing gold prices at development. Ongoing studies will feed into a preliminary economic assessment.Well financed with approximately C$7 million, Banyan is fully funded through 2024. This will support additional targeted exploration focused on expanding high-grade zones. However, the priority is on quality...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/1wv-MFlQAgnm-ca64e5kK4984dZB0os8-HJdRVsI74M/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzEzNTcyLzE2MjM5/NTQyMDctYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
