Talnakh concentrator modernisation project.

Location
Taimyr Peninsula, Russia.

Client
Nornickel Polar Division.

Project Description
The project will increase Talnakh’s throughput from 7.2-million tonnes of ore a year to 10.2-million tonnes a year, reducing losses in tailings and reducing the plant’s environmental footprint.

The concentrator’s reconstruction and technical upgrade project involved the expansion of the main building, installation of a unique semiautogenous grinding (SAG) mill, with a capacity of 10.2-million tonnes a year of ore, flotation machines and fine grinding mills. 

The new tailings pit has a six-million-tonne-a-year capacity using a closed water circuit, which will significantly reduce fresh-water use and lessen the environmental impact.
