Name of the Project
CS pozzolan/perlite project.

Location
The project is located in Nevada, in the US.

Project Owner/s
Sunrise Resources.

Project Description
The mine plan envisages a 27-year mine life, with perlite and natural pozzolan to be mined from the main zone in Phases 1 to 3 (years 1 to 15), with pozzolan continuing to be mined in the tuff zone in Phase 4 (years 16 to 27).

During this 27-year period, Sunrise aims to mine about 1.66-million tons of perlite (years 1 to 15 only), 14.52-million tons of pozzolan and 2.62-million tons of waste rock.

Ore and waste will be extracted from the openpits using openpit mining methods of dozer exca­vating, loading and hauling.

Given the semiconsolidated or fractured nature of the material, it is not expected that drilling and blasting will be required.

The company will use front-end loaders to load the ore and waste into the haul trucks.

The trucks will transport the waste rock to the storage areas near the openpits, and the perlite and pozzolan to the crushing and screening areas to be processed at the respective on-site processing facilities.
