The Lance field demonstration of low - pH In - Situ Recovery ( ISR ) , which started in August 2020 , is designed to provide key data on pattern configurations , pH adjustment , acid consumption , solids handling and oxidants ahead of a decision to restart production at the Project . Following the update on 26 February 2021 , Peninsula implemented a number of test modifications which have now delivered favourable results . Revised Pattern Configuration Three contiguous full - scale ISR patterns ( injection wells feeding a centrally located production well ) are operating within a previously unmined area of Mine Unit 1 ( collectively " MU1A ” ) . The chemical parameters within the original field demonstration patterns responded to injection , but at a slower than optimal rate . Peninsula adjusted the pattern configuration by installing and activating two new injection wells between each pair of recovery wells ( see Figures 1A and 1B ) . The result has been a considerably improved response for the key chemical parameters . www.pel.net.au 1
