A Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) was completed by Amec Foster Wheeler for the Norasa Project in 2015.

Engineering consulting company DRA Mineral Projects Pty Ltd. has been appointed as the to conduct the trade-off studies.

The company’s CEO, Mark Frewin commented on the news.

“We are pleased to appoint DRA to conduct these studies as they are highly qualified and have a strong understanding and experience with uranium mining. The appointment is a key element towards engineering and design optimization at Norasa. We are confident that the studies will highlight opportunities to improve the project economics in a market where uranium is now being treated as a environmentally sound renewable energy source.”

The scope of work includes a review of testwork information to confirm optimal grind size considering uranium recovery, costs, materials handling and tailings handling.

An eight week time frame is planned for the trade-off studies, along with a drilling program for confirmatory and variability metallurgical testwork.
