PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Mineral sands producer MZI Resources has produced its first batch of zircon concentrate from the Doral mineral separation plant (MSP) at its Picton plant, one month ahead of schedule.

Following the start of heavy mineral concentrate production at the Keysbrook mine, in Western Australia, last week, the concentrate has now been processed through the MSP on a trial basis to produce initial concentrates.

“Achieving the milestone of first production heralds MZI’s emergence as producer of high-quality mineral sands product. The Keysbrook project continues to perform above expectations as we ramp up to full production and commence sales,” said MZI MD Trevor Matthews.

Commissioning activities were now under way and ahead of schedule at both the Keysbrook wet concentrator and the Picton MSP.

Full production, which would see Keysbrook deliver 95 000 t/y of leucoxene and zircon products, had been targeted for the December quarter.
