RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Has anyone considered a 'Conveyor System' for GPH?
IrishWolf,
you're right, this project could ramp up very quickly !!
The Imuruk Basin was mined during WWI because of increased demand for graphite.
The ore was transported by barge to Teller where it was loaded on freighters.
This plan sounds familiar ?
Imuruk Basin is also gold country and the area was dredged for many years.
If deep water access to the minesite is a problem why not dredge an access channel ?
As long as it's done in a manner that respects the environment , and local residents, there should be no issues.
Interesting background history
Grapite Mining History Imuruk Basin
The most cost effective way to mine the lower grade graphite is via concentrator at the minesite, then barge it for further processing or transport overseas.
There's modular concentrator units out there but I'm no expert, just putting it out there !
Have a Great Weekend
