EQR ACHIEVES DAILY CONCENTRATE PRODUCTION RECORD IN LINE WITH RAMP-UP SCHEDULE
EQ Resources Limited is the 100% owner of the Mt Carbine Tungsten Mine near Cairns, Australia’s leading primary tungsten producer.
Highlights:
-
Mt Carbine Operations produced 11.1* tonnes of 50% WO3 concentrate in a 24hr period.
-
Driven by improved blasting and mining methods working with Golding & EQR geology team.
-
Tungsten recovery in the Gravity Plant for July and August was at +83%.
-
The Company continues to ramp up mining and processing production in line with planned activities.
- Wet tonnes as weighed on scales at the gravity processing plant as each bag is produced.
EQ Resources Limited (“EQR” or “the Company”), is pleased to announce a new daily concentrate production record at its Mt Carbine Tungsten Mine in Far North Queensland, in line with the mining and production rampup schedule. The operations team have produced a new record of 11.1* tonnes of 50% WO3 concentrate across a 24hr shift roster from its Mt Carbine open pit mining operations.
The Company has seen significant benefit in the installation of its new TOMRA in July which has some of the upgraded program benefits of the newer generation programming on the sorters. Improved accuracy is leading to a cleaner XRT Sorter concentrate for downstream processing and increased running time of the sorting plant.
Another positive being seen in the Gravity Plant is that the higher the grade of the feed to the plant, the higher the tungsten recovery rate is. For July and August, the Gravity Plant has held a recovery of +80% recovery with September to date seeing a tungsten recovery of +85% WO3 which is very significant for the operation and currently better than expected through the feasibility work completed.
Average daily production in the past week ahead of this announcement was above 8* tonnes of 50% WO3 concentrate, a resulting benefit of the higher-grade ore coming from the Open Pit and through the Gravity Plant.
EQ Resources Chief Executive Officer, Mr Kevin MacNeill, commented, “The open pit operations are still ramping up and operating at around 65% capacity to date, which is in line with our ramp-up schedule. So, there is still additional capacity to be added to our production profile which we are seeing as the Golding and EQR teams settle into their respective roles with the open cut mining and associated production.”
“We continue to look forward to updating our stakeholders on a regular basis as the operations and company grow.”
