Micrex Development Corp.: Update on Québec Magnetite Apatite Deposit
25 January 2012 - 2:43AM
Marketwired Canada
Micrex Development Corp. (TSX VENTURE:MIX) announces developments on its
magnetite deposit in Quebec.
Micrex has shipped 15 tons of crushed magnetite to Newcastle, England for
testing in a new state-of-the-art grinding machine which will crush to 325 mesh
without the use of ball mills. This will greatly improve production capability
and efficiency for the plant that Micrex intends to build later this year.
Micrex's manager for Quebec, Mr. Roch Cormier, will be attending and supervising
the final production runs in Newcastle later this month.
Early reports from Corem lab facility in Quebec City have proven that titanium
may be readily separated from the magnetite and apatite components. Unlike most
deposits of this type, the titanium is discrete from the magnetite, and may be
separated at 150 mesh.
Micrex estimates that that the Quebec and eastern seaboard market for 325 mesh
magnetite is over 150,000 tons annually, which is currently being supplied from
various offshore sources. The plant will be built in stages to help supply this
market.
Micrex would like to acknowledge all the assistance the Quebec government and
its various agencies have extended to the Company as it moves through the
regulatory process of bringing this property into production.
Other news releases are being prepared to cover the drilling program in Quebec
and the survey at the Deadwood gold mine in New Mexico.
Micrex Development Corp. (TSX VENTURE:MIX) is a mineral exploration company
based in Alberta, Canada with mining properties in North America. Current focus
is on the St. Charles de Bourget magnetite / titanium / apatite property in
Quebec.
