GT Gold Corp. engaged Ausenco to assist in developing a forward work plan outlining the tasks required to develop an NI 43-101 compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the Tatogga Project in British Columbia, Canada.
The Tatogga property is located in the Stikine region of northwestern British Columbia, Canada, on the Klastline Plateau, within the area generally referred to as the “Golden Triangle”, approximately 14km west of the Red Chris copper-gold mine.
The forward work plan involved the identification of critical activities, such as geotechnical programs, metallurgical testwork programs, environmental permitting, social engagement and technical trade-off studies, that will ultimately be required to support the execution and completion of engineering, economic evaluation and reporting activities to complete the PEA.
Project Solutions and Approach
Successful advancement and development of the Tatogga project is contingent on advancing a number of major workstreams, with a measure of complexity and interdependency existing between the multiple work fronts. Successful planning and execution of the project requires an integrated approach to preparation and data collection, which will support advancement through a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Ausenco was able to deliver this plan through a collaborative effort across major disciplines to capitalize on synergies for field work programs and reduce the overall timeframe and anticipated costs. This was done in collaboration with GT Gold to ensure alignment with their overall business strategy.
