RE:Any Mine Engineers on this board? Wondering how far Siana isrockingrooster wrote: To date, rehabilitation works have been completed as they relate to the crushing plant and the reagent circuit while work continues with the grinding circuit, the CIL and detoxification area, the elution and electrowinning area. Rehabilitation of the power plant is 99% complete. The crushing plant is undergoing early testing and commissioning using the ore stockpile and all agitators, pumps and screens have been tested. The filling of the CIL and detox tanks with water has also already commenced in preparation for the tank hydrotesting and air compressor pressure testing. Air and water supply commissioning is ongoing with three (3) units of the compressor already operational.
Dewatering and waste stripping of the Siana pit are proceeding together with TSF6 road construction, excavation and embankment placement works. Construction of TSF6 forms part of the critical path to the restart of operations. The ore stockpile currently approximates 350 thousand tonnes.
Indeed, a lot of interesting minutia, but the real question is, when is it going to start producing, and are they on plan?
