Tocvan Ventures Progresses with Pilot Facility at Gran Pilar Project

Tocvan Ventures Corp has unveiled a comprehensive pilot facility design for its Gran Pilar Gold-Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. This facility is planned to handle 50,000 tonnes and includes a 1.76-hectare layout focused on hydrometallurgical processes.

The 2023 land acquisition has expanded the site to over 21 km², facilitating future scalable infrastructure. Recent drilling results, such as 3.1m at 19.4 g/t gold, showcase the project's potential amid historically high gold prices.

Key elements of the pilot leaching pad include a detailed infrastructure plan and a hydrometallurgical process utilizing sodium cyanide over a 60 to 90-day cycle. Environmental safety protocols, including monitoring systems, are in place.

With further development expected in 2025, Tocvan is working on securing financing for the pilot facility, poised to leverage favorable market conditions.
