KAZ Minerals in Kazakhstan has selected FLSmidth as its technology partner for a new 5,000tonnes/day line at Aktogay in an order worth US$100 million (€81.4 million).
FLSmidth’s scope of supply includes the key machines, installation supervision, commissioning, start-up and ramp-up support.
The order will support KAZ Minerals in doubling the throughput of its Aktogay open pit copper mine from 75,000tonnes/day to 150,000tonnes/day.
FLSmidth has previously delivered three complete copper concentrators to KAZ Minerals, one in Aktogay in 2015 and two in Bozshakol, also in Kazakhstan, in 2014.
“This new order highlights FLSmidth’s strong partnership with KAZ Minerals after we successfully delivered the key technologies for their three other world-class copper concentrators in Kazakhstan,”says Manfred Shaffer, group executive vice president, Minerals Division.
“It also emphasises the value of our highly efficient equipment and services that maximise their return on investment, increase productivity and minimise environmental impact, from pit to plant.”
