## Minestarters Atlas summary

Bayhorse Silver has submitted flotation concentrate samples from its Bayhorse Silver Mine to Allihies Engineering for proprietary antimony leaching testing. If successful, this hydrometallurgical process could improve recoveries of silver, copper, and zinc while providing a cost-effective way to recover antimony, a strategic mineral.

Reasoning: The company is testing a new hydrometallurgical route to treat refractory concentrate, which could unlock significant value from antimony and improve silver/copper recoveries.

- Positive factor: Potential to unlock value from refractory antimony/silver/copper/zinc mineralization

- Positive factor: Use of proprietary ASL technology to avoid costly roasting

- Positive factor: Antimony is a strategic/critical mineral in the US

- Positive factor: Potential to significantly improve historical cost-benefit calculations

- Negative factor: Mineralization is refractory in nature

- Negative factor: Metallurgical testing is currently at the sample submission stage \(not yet results-bearing for this specific test\)

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Refractory Ore**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Ore requires oxidation/pressure treatment before recovery — a processing and recovery risk.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states the dominant mineralization is refractory in nature.

Evidence · text

> The dominant Bayhorse mineralization is primarily tetrahedrite... and is refractory in nature.

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\).

Why it applies: The company mentions a standard flotation processing facility \(mill\) in Idaho.

Evidence · text

> The Company has established an up to 60 ton/day mill and standard flotation processing facility
