Talnakh concentrator modernisation project, Russia
Name of the Project
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.
