The open pit ore scheduling study results show over 9 million tonnes of mineralised material optimised by open pit mining with very low strip ratios.
Importantly, this material has the capacity to supplement the underground mined mineralisation to the process plant and increase the mine life by an additional three years from the underground only sourced material.
In early January, Ironbark announced an increase in both the grade and confidence of the resource at the project.
The global resource at Citronen now stands at 13.1 billion pounds of zinc and lead, using a 2% zinc cut-off, compared to the previously reported estimate of 132.6 million tonnes at 4% zinc and lead for 11 billion pounds.
