In September 2017, the commencement of construction at Lindero was officially launched. Lindero has been designed as an 18,750 tonnes per day owner operated open pit mine with a pit life of 13 years based on existing mineral reserves. Crushed ore will be placed on a leach pad with the pregnant solution pumped to SART ( Sulphidization-Acidification-Recycle-Thickening ) and ADR (Adsorption, Desorption and Recovery ) plants prior to electrowining and refining where gold will be poured to doré bars.
