PERTH (miningweekly.com) – The Edie Creek gold/silver operation, in Papua New Guinea, is expected to reach its new 60 t/d production target during the June quarter, as ASX-listed Niuminco installed new plant and mining equipment.

The junior company on Thursday noted that the new equipment included a 5 t/h ball mill, a roller crusher, a 2 t/h centrifugal concentrator, two vibrating feeders, a second tip truck and excavator parts.

The Edie Creek operation was now positioned for a six-fold increase in throughput, compared with the January/February production, in addition to improved machine reliability and access to higher-grade mining inventory.

The installation of the new plant and equipment would be completed in April, with processing capacity and production increasing to the planned 60 t/d rate by the June quarter.
