EV Resources Limited (ASX:EVR) continues to advance its antimony project, with the flotation circuit at the Tecomatln Processing Plant in Puebla, Mexico successfully commissioned and dry tested. With this milestone achieved, the company is preparing to begin its proof-of-concept processing campaign, which is expected to test the performance of the integrated plant under operating conditions while supporting its broader objective of progressing towards commercial antimony production.
With the flotation circuit now in place, the processing plant has all key components required for concentrate production. The facility is intended to process feed from EV Resources' Los Lirios Project and, under a non-binding memorandum of understanding, material sourced from the neighbouring Chinantla Antimony Project.
Earlier metallurgical test work identified flotation as the preferred recovery method after achieving antimony recoveries of approximately 81.1% while producing commercial-grade concentrate.
