Philipsburg Mill - Montana

The Philipsburg Mill is located in Philipsburg, Montana, about 114 road miles from the Drumlummon Mine.

On May 18, 2011 the Company announced that it had leased the Philipsburg Montana gravity/flotation mill owned by Contact Mining Company on a month to month basis until December, 2011 (the "Philipsburg Mill"). The Company had previously leased this mill in 2010 to conduct test milling programs.

The Philipsburg Mill has a capacity of up to 1,000 tons per day (depending on the grinding index of the mill feed) and includes a jaw plus cone crushing circuit, two 300 HP conical grinding mills, a jig plus Wilfley table gravity circuit, six banks of flotation cells, and a licensed tailings storage facility. Equipment upgrades by the Company include the installation of a Gemini table, larger capacity jig and a bank of Humphrey-style spirals.
