Outotec to deliver flotation technology for First Quantum Minerals
Outotec has agreed with the First Quantum Minerals Limited Projects Office based
in Perth, Australia, for the delivery of flotation, thickening and automation
technologies for several of their operations around the world. The total value
of the contracts exceeds EUR 20 million.
These orders include the delivery of 14 units of Outotec TankCell® 300 and 54
smaller TankCell® units for nickel and copper concentrate production for the
Kevitsa project, located in northern Finland. This flotation technology delivery
complements the earlier agreed supply of Outotec® grinding mills for the same
project.
Kansanshi's copper and cobalt concentrator plant in Zambia has also selected to
increase their production by six Outotec TankCell® 300 units after enjoying the
performance and reliability of Outotec flotation technology for several years.
"The benefit of Outotec TankCell® 300 technology is that it provides a large
flotation volume in very a compact footprint with low operating and maintenance
costs," says Outotec's President and CEO Pertti Korhonen.
As part of the contracts, Outotec will also deliver Guelb Moghrein gold and
copper concentrator plant in Mauretania advanced image analysis, reagent dosing
automation and expert systems to optimize the flotation process. The flotation
optimization project expands the current flotation expert systems supplied and
commissioned earlier by Outotec.
