Golden Predator Royalty & Development Corp. (GPD) owns a 100% interest in the Taylor silver mine and mill complex, located near Ely, Nevada. The Taylor project includes a measured and indicated resource of 14.9 million ounces of silver*, a 1,320 ton per day mill with flotation and cyanide leach plants, and approximately 3,900 acres of mining claims.

GPD's primary focus at Taylor is to utilize existing infrastructure to provide flexible processing solutions for a growing portfolio of precious metal projects, and in a manner which will provide long-term stable returns. To this end, discussions are underway with regulators to determine which processing options are available and what permitting timetables can be expected.

The Taylor mill complex consists of primary, secondary and tertiary crushers, eight ball mills, a leaching and counter-current decantation thickening circuit, Merrill Crowe equipment, a flotation circuit, a maintenance shop, an assay office, an electrical substation and a mine office. The mill and counter-current cyanide plant became operational in July of 1981. In 1989 Alta Gold expanded the mill to include a copper, lead and zinc flotation circuit for processing ore from the nearby Ward Mine. The mill has been on care and maintenance since 1994 and, upon recent inspection by independent consultants, but will need to be upgraded prior to operation.

Exploration potential at Taylor includes further investigation of high grade silver located outside the resource area, and additional areas of silver and gold-bearing jasperoids that have not yet been thoroughly investigated.

GPD continues to advance the high grade bonanza underground potential of Taylor while monitoring the economic viability of the lower-grade open pit resource.
