Transfer of paste to remote mine site by truck from existing mine and paste plant
Engineering and design of facility to load trucks at existing plant and off-load at remote site
Highlights and Achievements
A unique solution to achieve efficient delivery of paste to remote site by trucking and pumping
This novel approach successfully included design of truck loading and hopper installation at the existing mine
Design and construction of the paste off-loading facility at the remote mine site which included truck off loading facility to hopper and access to mine workings
With no reference to prior installations, this project highlighted the science and planning capability of the team, together with their “can do” attitude towards new and novel challenges
Benefits for Client
Significant savings in time and cost utilising truck transport rather than pipeline or conveyor
Negating the requirement for the construction of additional paste plant for the remote mine
Enabling quicker time to mine operation and production with novel paste delivery to the remote site
