About the Minago Project
关于 Minago 项目
The Minago Project is located in the southern part of Manitoba's Thompson Nickel Belt ("TNB"), which is the fifth largest sulphide nickel belt in the world based on contained nickel endowment, containing over 18 nickel deposits and over 5 billion lbs of nickel production since 1959. (Naldrett, A.J., 2004, Magmatic Sulfide Deposits; Geology, Geochemistry and Exploration: Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 725 p.).
Minago项目位于曼尼托巴省汤普森镍带（“TNB”）的南部，汤普森镍矿带是世界上第五大硫化物镍矿带，自1959年以来拥有超过18个镍矿床和超过50亿磅的镍产量。（Naldrett，A.J.，2004年，岩浆硫化物矿床；地质、地球化学和勘探：施普林格出版社，柏林，第725页）。
On July 6, 2021, Silver Elephant announced Mineral Resource Estimate for Minago prepared by Mercator and AGP with an effective date of July 2, 2021 that includes a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 722 million lbs of nickel, and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 319 million lbs of nickel at an average grade of 0.74% nickel. The Minago Project has received over $40 million in investment since early 2000.
2021年7月6日，Silver Elephant公布了墨卡托和AGP编制的米纳戈矿产资源估算，生效日期为2021年7月2日，其中包括7.22亿磅镍的测定和指示矿产资源，以及3.19亿磅镍的推断矿产资源，平均镍品位为0.74％。自2000年初以来，Minago项目已获得超过4000万美元的投资。
Manitoba Provincial Highway 6 and a high-voltage (230 kV) transmission line both transect the Minago project. Minago has been demonstrated to produce a 22.3% nickel concentrate based on representative feed of 0.54% nickel through extensive metallurgical testing by SGS. Vale currently produces nickel concentrates in Thompson at the heart of the TNB, 270 km northeast of the Minago project. Its nickel concentrates are shipped to its Sudbury smelter for processing to refined nickel.
曼尼托巴省 6 号省道和一条高压 (230 kV) 输电线路都横穿米纳戈项目。通过SGS的大量冶金测试，Minago已被证明可以根据0.54％的镍的代表性原料生产22.3％的镍精矿。淡水河谷目前在位于TNB中心的汤普森生产镍精矿，位于米纳戈项目东北270公里处。其镍精矿被运往萨德伯里冶炼厂加工成精制镍。
In 2011, the Environmental Act License submitted by Victory nickel for a 10,000-tonnes-per-day open-pit operation at Minago was approved by the Manitoba government. Flying nickel will provide an update on the Environmental Act License in early 2022.
