Context: | Eramet required an upgrade of their Heavy Mineral Concentrate bin at the Grand Cote Operations floating concentrator plant. Variability in the dredged ore was leading to significant recovery losses. Engenuity were engaged to conduct a feasibility study, and then provide a multidisciplinary, detailed design complete upgrade solution. |
Our Role: | Engenuity initially conducted a feasibility study to determine the best solution; then delivered a complete detailed design package, managing mechanical and structural partners. This involved the full development of detailed design documentation, and associated equipment tender reviews and recommendations. Engenuity is still to provide FAT and commissioning services later in 2025. |
Key Outcomes: | Engenuity together with partner mechanical and structural design firms have developed a bespoke density control bin designed to optimise the GCO HMC recovery. The upgrade is expected to be installed and operational late 2025. |
