Millennia has mines in Utah, two of which are open pit mines with over 20 years of production history, and mines in Arizona, each of which have precious metals, a variety of other metals and minerals, and rare earths also on the Drum Mine.

The Drum Mine has 11 tailing piles of over 3 million tons of ore above ground which is believed to have more than a billion in gold ready to be crushed, separated, processed and refined. The hardest part is already done; digging it out of the ground and separating the dirt from the precious metal bearing ore. The two open pit mines are less than half dug, but will re-open after we harvest the tailing piles. These mines previously utilized a cheap spray leaching method which pulled out only 50% of the gold from the leach pads. The detailed mining records show more than 160,000 oz. taken out, with thousands of assays and many drilling reports for verification of a variety of other precious metals as well as silver.

The crushing process mills the ore to 1 to 3 microns at over 200 tons per hour allowing us to pull the micro gold out from other precious metals, process and refine it. We have a good relationship with a major refinery that has been refining for over 100 years for the final step. Gold’s unique physical properties, its luster, easy workability, and virtual indestructability have given it a special place in the history of the world. Over centuries, gold has been prized for its rarity and beauty, and thousands of years ago became a medium of coinage, eventually becoming the formalized basis of economic life. Gold continues to adorn us, is used as an industrial metal in electronics, dentistry, medicine, aerospace and as an investment vehicle in the form of bars and coins.

The supply of gold is limited by nature itself. Thousands of pounds of ore are required to produce just one precious ounce. Gold is so scarce that all the gold that has ever been mined (approximately 135,000 metric tons) would fit into a cube measuring just 20 yards on each side. As we do mining, we will create jobs and wealth for the region and fund empowering projects.

Millennia Mining is engaged in extracting the earth’s rich resources. Canvasing multiple mining sites, Plomosa Mining is committed to a broad extraction focus varying from the mining of precious metals to the assaying of plentiful deposits of ancillary metals and minerals.

The Properties in Southwestern Arizona near Quartzite, contain underlying thick, abundant gold placer gravels and other mineral concentrates located within washes that drain from the Plomosa Mountains. These drainages contain alluvial material from the Plomosa Mining District. Historic gold mines are located up-drainage from the property. The placer sand and gravel deposits extend for miles west of the Plomosa Mountains.

Metallic resources available in the Plomosa placer gravel deposits have been professionally evaluated. Additionally, numerous other metals and minerals have been professionally evaluated to exist in commercial quantities such as silica, iron, titanium, zirconium, nickel and copper.

Some of the metals that are found at the site are naturally magnetic, such as iron and nickel, and are recoverable by magnetic separation. These metals and minerals will further add to the overall value of the mine and would potentially extend the mine’s production longevity.
