Scope of Work
OMC’s scope of work was to assess, supervise and optimise comminution testwork (scrubbing in particular) for various ore blends. Based on the testwork results, a suitable comminution circuit was then sized.
Flowsheet
The circuit consisted of an open circuit scrubber followed by three separate treatment circuits; one of which included thickening following by leaching, the second circuit was a closed circuit ball mill and the third circuit consisted of a closed circuit SAG mill.
Notable Feature
OMC’s scope of work was to assess, supervise and optimise comminution testwork (scrubbing in particular) for various ore blends. Based on the testwork results, a suitable comminution circuit was then sized.
Outcome
The inclusion of various treatment circuits allowed operational flexibility and ensured ores of various characteristics is treated concurrently and optimally.
