Two large Iron Ore thickeners have been successfully commissioned in Australia, the biggest being a 46m diameter unit with a free-standing completely bolted steel tank. The reduction in site erection costs pays handsome dividends when compared to welding a tank of that size on site – particularly in Australia.
A 30m thickener of similar design was erected within 8 weeks, for a mining plant in the Pemba district of Mozambique and Roytec Global are current shipping two gold plant thickeners to a new client mining in Nicaragua.
