ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) announced the arrival of additional processing equipment at its fully permitted Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Québec, marking a significant step in the commissioning of its 1,000-tonne-per-day processing facility. The equipment includes a Sepro Mineral Systems Falcon Gravity Concentrator, designed to support precious-metal recovery, and industrial thickeners supplied through A.M. King for solid-liquid separation and water management.
With the main mill infrastructure nearly completed, ESGold is progressively assembling and commissioning the systems required to bring Montauban into operation. These systems include screening and separation, grinding, cyanide leaching, clarification and de-oxygenation, Merrill-Crowe precipitation, and doré production. The successful integration of these components is critical for achieving efficient and sustainable precious metal recovery once production begins.
The Montauban project is central to ESGold’s strategy as a fully permitted, fully funded, pre-production mining company advancing a scalable clean mining model across North and South America. The company’s dual-track approach aims to generate cash flow today while pursuing discovery tomorrow, building a platform for clean, sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value. Production at Montauban is anticipated in 2026.
This development is important for investors and the broader mining industry because it demonstrates tangible progress toward operational status. The arrival of specialized equipment and the ongoing commissioning of the processing facility reduce execution risk and keep the project on track for its targeted production timeline. For the local economy in Québec, the project could bring job creation and economic activity once operational. For the mining sector, ESGold’s focus on a clean mining model may serve as a case study for sustainable resource extraction.
ESGold Corp. is listed on the CSE under the symbol ESAU, on the OTCQB under ESAUF, and on the FSE under Z7D. The company’s latest news and updates are available in its newsroom at https://nnw.fm/ESAUF. The full press release can be viewed at https://nnw.fm/IVhHk.
As commissioning continues, the market will be watching for further milestones, including the completion of infrastructure and the start of production. The successful launch of Montauban could position ESGold as a notable player in the gold-silver mining space, particularly if it delivers on its clean mining and sustainability promises.
