Wilcherry Hill - Processing

A process plant will involve the use of +2Mt/a mobile crushing and screening plant and, if required, a dry magnetic separation unit. The product of the plant will be fines (minus 6 mm) streams which then will be stockpiled either for sale, or for potential retreatment in a beneficiation plant (Stage 2). The portable crushing and screening equipment will be able to be relocated to a run-of-mine (ROM ) pad for each pit, thus reducing truck cycle times.

The nominal plant design is based upon limited testwork data. Further information will be required on the overall composition of the Wilcherry ore bodies, before the plant design is finalised.
