2 INVESTIGATIVE TESTWORK Previous Test Work Direct Cyanidation Test Work Direct cyanidation leach results of bulk samples taken from all zones on the deposit were conducted early in the test program in 2010 Poor gold recovery results were obtained Concentrate was ground to a P80 of 325 mesh for this testing Recoveries from Brimstone and Vortex, the two largest components of the deposit, were in the mid-20% range for gold and 80% range for silver, while other smaller components of the deposit yielded recoveries ranging from 45 to 50% for gold and 55 to 83% for silver Roaster Test Work Test work showed that roasting would work when tested on Brimstone ore Results indicated that average recoveries of 89% Au and 74% Ag are achievable from the concentrates by varying the leach and roast conditions slightly for the majority of the concentrate produced 2
3 INVESTIGATIVE TESTWORK Previous Oxidation Testing Autoclave or POX Test Work Test work showed that POX will work to oxidize the sulfide concentrate Gold liberation was good with gold recoveries achieving mid-90s Silver recoveries went down due to jarosite formation at low ph Oxidized concentrates that were treated using a lime boil were able to achieve silver recoveries in the 80s while maintaining gold recoveries in the mid-90s Bio Oxidation Test Work Test work showed that bio oxidation works for Hycroft rougher and cleaner concentrates Rougher concentrate oxidation times were predicted to be 4.5 days to obtain 83% sulfide oxidation 3
4 INVESTIGATIVE TESTWORK BIOX: Sulfide Oxidation versus Gold Recovery BIOX test work results showing percent sulfide oxidation versus gold recovery 4 The most important lessons learned from the BIOX testing were: Hycroft concentrate does not require a high level of oxidation to achieve economic metal recovery Operating and capital cost intensive systems (autoclave, roasters) are not required Other simpler oxidation process options needed to be investigated
5 INVESTIGATIVE TESTWORK Silver Leach % Gold Leach % Chlorine Oxidation Testing Chlorine Oxidation Test Work Gold Leach vs Sulfide Oxidation Sulfide Oxidation (%) Test work showed that chlorine oxidation would work on Hycroft rougher and cleaner concentrates, but at high chlorine consumptions Silver recovery dropped with increasing sulfide oxidation percentages Chlorine Oxidation Test Work Silver Leach vs Sulfide Oxidation Sulfide Oxidation (%)
6 INVESTIGATIVE TESTWORK Silver Leach % Gold Leach % Pressure Alkaline Testing Pressure Alkaline Oxidation Test Work Au Leach vs Sulfide Oxidation Sulfide Oxidation (%) Pressure Alkaline Oxidation Test Work Ag Leach vs Sulfide Oxidation Scoping tests were conducted using pressure oxidation at 100 C and 40 psi oxygen overpressure 1 As shown in these graphs, alkaline POX will effectively oxidize the sulfides, allowing for effective gold and silver leaching The results of these tests were positive and this method remains as an option for the concentrate treatment at Hycroft. However, the bottom limit for temperature and oxygen required for sulfide oxidation to occur was not obtained as test work at yet lower temperatures and ambient pressure would later prove Sulfide Oxidation (%) 1. As compared with previous POX test work completed using industry standard temperatures (250 C plus) and oxygen overpressures of 100 psi
7 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) The sulfide mineral in Hycroft ore is predominantly pyrite and marcasite, with the gold associated on the rim of the sulfide crystal, not intimately associated within the sulfide crystal Hycroft concentrate is amenable to simple oxidation and leaching practices Ambient pressure oxidation is a process that has been used successfully for a number of years in the precious metals industry The Albion process is a common form of ambient pressure oxidation, however, other less familiar versions of the process have been, or are currently in operation globally The AAO process is simply described as: Air or oxygen is sparged into agitated tanks, and sufficient retention time, typically 4 to 24 hr, is provided to allow adequate oxidation and/or passivation of cyanide-consuming minerals AAO can be applied as a simple, low capital and operating cost step before cyanide leaching to oxidize and/or passivate the surfaces of some of the more reactive, reagent-consuming sulfides AAO, as it is intended to be applied in the concentrate oxidation process for Hycroft, involves using oxygen enriched air and heat generated from the oxidation process to oxidize the concentrate in an ambient pressure environment using trona to provide the alkaline environment and to neutralize the acid that is created during the oxidation process 7
8 BENCH SCALE TESTING Silver Leach % Gold Leach % Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) Alkaline Ambient Pressure Test Work Au Leach vs Sulfide Oxidation Sulfide Oxidation (%) Alkaline Ambient Pressure Test Work Ag Leach vs Sulfide Oxidation Test work was initially conducted on Alkaline Oxidation at Ambient pressure (AAO) using caustic (NaOH) as the ph modifier. The test showed that oxidation of the sulfides was effective and gold and silver liberation for cyanidation was achieved Sulfide Oxidation (%)
9 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) A review of possible ph modifying reagents for effectiveness and cost was conducted which included lime, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium silicate, limestone and sodium sesquicarbonte (Trona).

10 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) Trona was found to be the most cost effective reagent for oxidizing the Hycroft concentrates Trona has the added benefit of being readily available and within relatively close proximity to Hycroft The largest known trona source in the world is situated in Green River, Wyoming, with readily accessible transportation lines to Hycroft The next phase of test work involved looking at different Trona addition rates 10
11 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona The relationship between gold /silver recovery and sulfide oxidation with Trona as the ph modifier is shown in the following graphs Silver recovery at Hycroft is an important factor in the economic evaluation An economic evaluation on the degree of oxidation and gold and silver recovery versus the operating costs can be performed Initial calculations show an oxidation range between 55% and 70% will give the most economic return 11
12 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona Gold extraction can be tied to Trona consumption as is depicted from the test data displayed in the following graph. 12
13 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona The first parameter reviewed was the oxidation time required at varying Trona addition rates Trona addition effects the rate and degree of oxidation 13
14 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona The following graph shows the effect of reaction temperature on sulfide oxidation rate. Higher reaction temperatures accelerate the oxidation reaction Additional operating parameters that have been reviewed include: reaction temperature concentrate particle size oxygen concentration, and percent solids of the concentrate slurry feeding AAO 14
15 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona Particle size of the rougher concentrate and percent solids of the slurry both have an obvious impact on the sulfide oxidation reaction rate Finer grinds and lower percent solids both improve reaction kinetics 15
16 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona Two distinct reaction components are affected by the percent solids: 1) the lower percent solids improves reaction kinetics by diluting the reaction products; and 2) the amount of oxygen available in the slurry for the oxidation of the sulfide is higher the lower the percent solids. 16
17 BENCH SCALE TESTING Ambient Alkaline Oxidation ( AAO ) with Trona The effect of oxygen concentration on the slurry pyrite oxidation rates is illustrated in the following graph If all other parameters are kept constant, the higher the oxygen concentration the faster the sulfide oxidation rate Although the degree of oxidation is directly proportional to the amount of oxygen consumed, higher oxygen concentrations accelerate the reaction rate 17

25 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS Bench Scale Testing: Summary and Conclusions Hycroft concentrate is easily oxidized and can be processed by simple oxidation techniques Oxidation testing of rougher concentrate resulted in a sulfide oxidation percentage of 60% and recoveries of 85% gold and 82% silver oxidation time of 24 hours, a reaction temperature of 75 C, slurry percent solids of 15% w/w, and a grind size of 15 microns Positive results from bench scale testing and preliminary economic review of the oxidation circuit warrant a pilot plant study Bench scale test results set pilot plant baseline target parameters AAO is a very flexible process Oxidation rates are driven by capital and operating costs The pilot plant will investigate various adjustments to the inputs to assess optimal operating parameters as compared to their associated capital and operating cost 25
