JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Construction has started on the 20 t/h pilot plant for a bulk metallurgical testwork programme at Aim-listed Savannah Resources’ Mutamba project, in Mozambique.
Mineral sands engineering company Anubis Mocambique Limitada (AML) has been appointed to undertake the work, with the pilot plant set to produce bulk samples of concentrate for metallurgical and product testwork upon completion.
“The completion of the plant will be a key milestone for the Mutamba consortium as we move the project towards a development decision,” Savannah CEO David Archer said in an update to shareholders on Monday.
Construction and commissioning are expected to be completed by the end of this year.
AML is responsible for the turnkey reassembly and commissioning of the plant, with the scope of work including site survey; installation of a site security fence with access lockable gate and security post; bulk earthworks; and preparation of the old railway line to be used as construction access road; as well as civil works; structural reassembly; and processing equipment assembly.
