[QUOTE="goc, post: 291117, member: 7399"] U3O8 confirms positive test results from Argentine project EBR Staff Writer Published 03 March 2011 Canadian uranium explorer U3O8 Corp has confirmed positive results from the first metallurgical tests on uranium- and vanadium-bearing gravels from the Laguna Salada project in the Chubut Province of Argentina. The tests show that uranium and vanadium grades can be increased between 4 and 12 times simply by screening, uranium leach recovery from upgraded material was between 74% and 96% and vanadium leach recovery from upgraded material was between 71% and 86%. U3O8 president and CEO Richard Spencer said that the company's initial metallurgical test results mark an important step towards demonstrating the economic viability of Laguna Salada, adding yet another positive attribute to this potentially low cost project. The company said that the uranium-vanadium occurs in soft, unconsolidated sandy gravel that should be amenable to low-cost mining techniques that require no blasting and crushing.
