Brisbane venue for mine waste technology

EnviroGold Global Limited, a technology company that helps the mining industry to monetise valuable metals contained in mine waste and tailings, has chosen Australia to demonstrate and commercialise its proprietary leaching technology.

It will construct a processing unit that will be used to demonstrate the NVRO Clean Leach Process at an industrial facility near Brisbane.

Under this arrangement, customer tailings will be transported to the demonstration facility, processed using the NVRO Clean Leach Process, with the residues transported back to the mine for disposal.

Chief Executive, David Cam said the tailings throughput and data collected throughout the processing operations will be sufficient to enable customers to proceed to scale up front-end engineering and design, and project economic assessments.

“There are several benefits to installing the processing plant at a centralised location, which include allowing multiple mines to ship tailings for processing and testing, and eliminating regulatory and environmental permission issues associated with mine site development,” Mr Cam (pictured) said.

“In addition to allowing multiple mine sites to test the NVRO Clean Leach Process, the demonstration plant will allow the company to extrapolate its findings into the necessary data required to fully commercialise the business.”

He said this would dramatically reduce timelines for major mining companies to deploy the Clean Leach Process on a commercial scale.

“This is a very exciting development that we expect will decrease the time and cost to begin showcasing the NVRO Clean Leach Process and allow the company to demonstrate its technology to more customers in less time,” Mr Cam said.
