The ore is processed using conventional crushing, grinding and flotation techniques to produce gold–copper concentrates. There are two parallel grinding circuits, each operating at a nominal rate of 25,000 tons per day. Each grinding circuit consists of one semi-autogenous grinding mill and one ball mill in combination.

There is no difference in liberation for the silver. The quartz is slightly more liberated for the screen across all sizes, compared to the circuit feed, likely related to the circulating load feeding the ball mill and the density effect taking place in the classification step. 3.1.3.
