Trigon Metals Stabilizes Water Levels and Maintains Uninterrupted Production from Underground at Kombat Mine, Namibia

18 July 2024 by trigonmetals

TORONTO, July 18, 2024—Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM; OTCQB: PNTZD) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) has executed a plan to address a temporary setback in underground pumping progress due to the failure of one of its two main dewatering pumps on the evening of June 14, 2024 at the Company’s Kombat mine in Namibia.

The mine had been dewatered down to 331 metres from the shaft collar at the time of the pump failure and the water has since risen to 227 metres below surface and has remained at that level for the last 2 weeks.

A new pump body has been ordered from the supplier and is currently scheduled to arrive in neighbouring South Africa by air on July 21, 2024. The pump will then be transported by road to Kombat for installation. Installation and repositioning of the completed pumping unit is estimated to be completed by July 28, 2024.

The failure is localized to the pump body (known as the wet end) and does not extend to the pump motor and the installed variable speed drive. The causes of the failure have been identified and are being investigated further with the original manufacturer and supplier of the pump, Yantai Xinhai Industry & Trade Co., Ltd.

Fanie Muller, VP Operations, “Despite the initial loss of progress in our dewatering, we expect to recover to our former levels quickly. Throughout the past ten months of dewatering, we have seen various brief interruptions in pumping. During those periods, we tend to experience an initial rapid increase in water levels that falls far more quickly than the initial drawdown when pumping is restored.”

Jed Richardson, CEO and Executive Chairman of Trigon Metals, commented “The pump failure was managed effectively by our redundancy and backup systems, preventing a flood like the one in 2007. The original design and contingency planning have been effectively implemented to ensure continuous and sustainable mine operations at Kombat mine.”

Mining activities continue as normal from the underground operations with mining activities focused on mining above 120 metres from the shaft collar. The remaining pump is being monitored continuously and does not show any sign of fatigue or potential failure at this juncture.

The Company remains focused on underground production from the Asis West underground complex. The pumping setbacks are not expected to impact plans and projections previously outlined in the Company’s guidance (see press release issued June 13, 2024).

Trigon Metals Announces May 2024 Production Highlights and Provides FY2025 Guidance

13 June 2024 by trigonmetals

All amounts in US dollars, unless otherwise noted

TORONTO — June 13, 2024 —Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM, OTCQB: PNZTF) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce highlights of its May 2024 underground production at Kombat and provides production guidance for the remainder of its 2025 financial year (“FY2025”).

May 2024 Production Update

At the Kombat mine, May 2024 was marked by several record-breaking underground mining days, leading to a production average of 12.1 tonnes of copper per day. Underground ore mined for the month totalled 19,664 tonnes at an average grade of 2.16%, leading to the production of 386 tonnes of copper. The Company wishes to acknowledge its dedicated Namibian team for this outstanding achievement.

Further to the announcement of Commercial Production from the underground mine (see press release dated May 23, 2024), the Company is pleased to report that the underground mine has continued to perform and exceed the production targets defined in its feasibility study (the “Feasibility Study”). The Feasibility Study was prepared by SRK Consulting South Africa (Pty) Ltd (“SRK”) in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”).

Financial Year 2025 Guidance

The Company’s focus for FY2025 remains on underground production from the Asis West underground complex. Underground production is expected to amount to between 250,000 and 280,000 ore tonnes mined for the year, at an average grade between 1.95% and 2.3% copper. From the ore mined, Trigon projects its copper metal production to range between 5,500 tonnes (12.1 M lbs) and 6,100 tonnes (13.4 M lbs) for the year.

Trigon Metals Achieves Commercial Production from the Underground at Kombat Mine, Namibia

23 May 2024 by trigonmetals

TORONTO — May 23, 2024 — Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM; OTCQB: PNTZF) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a significant milestone having achieved commercial production from the underground operations at its Kombat Mine in Namibia, as of April 30, 2024. This achievement marks a major step forward in Trigon’s path to becoming a leading mid-tier copper producer.

Trigon defines commercial production status as operating at 70% of production capacity over 30 consecutive days. After restarting mining operations from the open pit in May 2023, the Company commenced production from underground ahead of schedule, having announced underground training and the first blast on February 5, 2024. The build-up to commercial production levels has gone smoothly and exceeded Trigon management’s expectations.

Rennie Morkel, President and Chief Operating Officer, commented, “Congratulations to our homegrown owner operated underground mining teams. Re-asserting Kombat as an underground copper producing mine is a tremendous achievement for the operation, the company and our community. Going forward we will look for opportunities to grow production from underground, which in turn should increase our copper production and our profitability. My sincerest appreciation to the entire Kombat team, under the guidance of our VP Operations Fanie Muller, for their tireless efforts in achieving this important milestone for the future of Kombat.”

Commenting, Jed Richardson, CEO & Executive Chairman, said, “Increased grade from underground has profoundly impacted our metal production, making each tonne more profitable. It has improved recovery in the mill and increased the grade of the concentrate. The Kombat mine has been primarily an underground mine through its 45-year history. Our experience is now showing us why.”

Underground production has resulted in an increase in the Company’s metal output, owing to the higher grade of ore retrieved from the underground. As more high-grade ore tonnes from underground displace lower-grade open pit ore, copper production increases which is expected to translate into lower operating costs.

Copper Production lbs372,798404,324478,619774,696

The total copper production was calculated by adding open pit ore mined and underground ore mined to ore retrieved from the stockpile.

The Company has benefited from the expertise of many experienced miners who have remained in the vicinity of Kombat, dating back to 2007 when the Kombat Mine was last in operation. The operation targeted 500 tonnes per day (“tpd”) underground and 500 tpd open pit production in April to fill the mill’s 1,000 tpd throughput capacity. In April 2024, production from the underground averaged 552 tpd and has continued to exceed expectations, producing more than 1,000 tpd on four occasions in the month of May.

Ore processing occurs at the refurbished Kombat plant, with a current operating capacity of 30,000 tonnes per month (30ktpm). Plans are underway to increase the capacity to 60,000 tonnes per month (60ktpm) to accommodate ore from both underground and surface sources.

Dewatering continues at the Kombat mine, where water is being pumped at a rate of 2,800 m 3 /hour, well above the in-flow rate of 1200 m 3 /hour. The mine is now dewatered to 315m below shaft collar. Backup power capacity is in place to ensure an uninterrupted power supply for underground pump systems.

Qualified Person

The technical information presented in this press release has been reviewed and approved for disclosure by Fanie Müller, P.Eng, VP Operations of Trigon, who is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

Schlangental Drilling Intercepts 7.0m at 3.52% Copper and 43.09g/t Silver 15km East of Kombat Mine

18 April 2024 by trigonmetals

TORONTO — April 18, 2024 — Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM; OTCQB: PNTZF) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) is pleased to release highlights of the exploration campaign at Schlangental, a key prospect within the wider Kombat property, situated approximately 15km east of the active mining licence ML73B. This announcement comes on the heels of the Company finalizing its comprehensive exploration plan for the expansive Kombat property, spanning nearly 35 km from Gross Otavi to the west and Schlangental in the east.

Objectives Schlangental Drilling Campaign

Drilling at Schlangental is the first campaign testing mineralization outside of the main Kombat mining license on the Copper King Extension exploration prospect. Surface mineralization attracted Trigon geologists to the Schlangental area where reports of historic drilling indicated that mineralization continued at depth but no cores or detailed logs were available. Of the planned 36 holes totalling 4000m, only two holes have been drilled to-date, with both holes intercepting mineralization at modest depths.

Highlights of Two Confirmatory Holes

  • SCPL23-19: 331 azimuth; -57.5 dip
    Intersected 7.0m with 3.52% Cu & 43.09 g/t Ag, from 56m
  • SCPL23-20: 327.2 azimuth;-59.1 dip
    Intersected 3.0m with 1.99% Cu & 34.38 g/t Ag, from 48m

The mineralization was largely chalcocite (sulfide) and malachite (oxide) with associated higher-than-average silver compared to the main mineral resource at the Kombat mine and compared to the bornite and chalcopyrite copper sulfides predominant at the Kombat mine. Given the encouraging start, deeper drilling will now be undertaken to confirm if this pattern continues in the new area.

Jed Richardson, Trigon’s CEO and Executive Chairman, commented, “The expanse of the Copper King Extension and specifically Schlangental has long been an area of interest for management and the exploration team. These results bolster our belief that Otavi Velley still has plenty of new copper to be discovered. In 45 years of mining, about 12.5 million tonnes were mined at 2.6% copper plus associated silver, and we still have a measured and indicated resource of another 13.3 million tonnes at 2.2%. All told, that is over 25 million tonnes of combined tonnes over 2% copper, almost all contained in just 2.1 km of strike-length. We can now confirm that 15km to the east mineralization continues, with copper showings throughout the whole 35km land package. Needless to say, we have a lot to be excited about.” (For data on historical mining, see Company Management Discussion and Analysis available on the company’s Profile on SEDAR+ dated March 20, 2024)

Plan for Exploring 35km of the Copper King Extension

The broader exploration plan for the Kombat property encompasses an array of methodologies to comprehensively understand its geological potential. Phase 1 involves data compilation in 2D and 3D, supplemented by the acquisition and processing of government data. Subsequent phases entail the interpretation of gathered data to construct a full 3D geological model, augmented by a high-resolution magnetic survey using drones to refine structural geology insights.

Moreover, soil sampling initiatives, including auger drilling, will cover the entirety of the property. More specifically, auger drilling will target the western region to penetrate the B horizon for representative soil samples, while the eastern side’s challenging calcite cover may necessitate the use of small exploration drill rigs.

This integrated approach underscores Trigon’s commitment to thorough exploration methodologies, positioning the Company for strategic advancement and value creation across its extensive mineral assets. Follow-up holes are anticipated to be drilled as soon as the programme resumes.

Figure 2: Section of drill core from Hole SCPL23-19 — The wet drill core pictured here is predominantly chalcocite with minor malachite.

Quality Assurance & Quality Control (QA/QC)
All sample assay results have been monitored through the Company’s quality assurance / quality control (QA / QC) program following E2941 − 21 Standard Practices for Extraction of Elements from Ores and Related Metallurgical Materials by 4 acid Digestion with ICPOES finish. Drill core was sent to an independent laboratory, African Laboratory Specialists Namibia (“ALS”), for analysis. ALS is an independent laboratory, located in Kombat, Namibia. Core samples were prepared using the ASTM procedures. Sample size: 3 kg, crushed split to 250g weighed sample (+/- 0.5000g).
