El Capitan Pilot Project: Precious Metals Recovery Timeline
El Capitan Pilot Project timeline showcases the development and successful recovery of precious metals through innovative engineering processes. The project involves building a fine grinding hyper-concentration device, smelting hyper-concentrates, and refining metal ingots to recover valuable materials. The process, initiated in 2016, culminates in the commercial production of precious metals by 2017. Witness the journey from device construction to the sale of hyper-concentrates in this remarkable endeavor.

El Capitan Pilot Operation Time-Line Engineered and built the fine grinding Hyper Hyper- -Concentration Concentration device Delivered the device from China to Arizona, customizing it for US Developed and perfected the recovery process for El Capitan ore Argon smelted the hyper-concentrates to produce metal ingots Refined the ingots to recover the precious metals
After 20 Years Precious Metals Recovery The first Recovery fine grinding device built in China and shipped to Phoenix was modified to run on US power and enhanced to significantly improve the separation of the precious metals from the concentrates. Recovery of precious metals was accomplished mid-year of calendar 2017. A What What followed followed in in an to to produce produce a a hyper an exceptionally exceptionally short hyper- -concentrated concentrated material short period period of of time material ready ready for time ( (2 2 months) months) was for smelting smelting and was proof proof of of the and refining refining. . the ability ability This process was the first the El Capitan ore. . It has been successfully repeated with increasing larger quantities of concentrates. The December 2017 sale of 2,000+ pounds of concentrates completes the Pilot Program, producing precious metals in commercial quantities and value. first successful successful recovery recovery of of precious precious metals metals, beyond assays, from
