The Brandt company is gearing up to kick off development at the gold deposits of the Yuzhno-Akkarginskoye and Yuzhno-Leonidovskoye Akkarginsky ore field in 2024. This project, outlined in the subsoil user’s documentation, has been made public on the Unified Environmental Portal of Kazakhstan.
Their approach involves open-pit mining for extraction. The mining schedule for the Akkarga ore field is mapped out until 2029, with an anticipated annual ore yield of 420 thousand tons.
These deposits’ reserves were officially added to the state balance sheet as of January last year. For Yuzhno-Akkarga, the balance reserves stand at 966.95 thousand tons of oxidized gold ores and 1.385 tons of gold (with an average precious metal content of 1.43 g/t), while off-balance reserves comprise 3.075 million tons of ore and 2.274 tons of gold.
Meanwhile, the balance reserves for the Yuzhno-Leonidovskoye deposit are recorded as 1.087 million tons of ore and 1.375 tons of gold (with an average content of 1.27 g/t), alongside off-balance reserves of 2.444 million tons of ore and 1.438 tons of precious metal.
Brandt’s strategy involves ore processing at its own gold recovery plant, utilizing the heap leaching method.
