Sepro Mineral Systems Corp has been awarded a contract by Hemco Nicaragua SA, Nicaragua’s second largest gold producer, to supply a Milling and Gravity Recovery Circuit for the company’s operation in the municipality of Bonanza in north-eastern Nicaragua.
The order includes a Falcon SB-5200B gravity gold concentrator, a 2.1m x 4.9m Sepro-Sizetec single deck vibrating screen, a Sepro 2.1m x 6.0m tire driven, 330 kW (450 hp) drive, grate discharge primary grinding mill with a feed capacity of 50 t/hr and associated pumps, cyclones, control room, MCC and structural steel. This is a fully engineered package which requires the client to provide only the concrete slabs, the feed conveyor, an appropriate building, and integration with the existing process. Sepro has been involved with the client from conceptual design through to detailed engineering and will provide support personnel through the commissioning process which is expected in early 2013.
Hemco’s General Manager, Alvaro Peralta, comments that “Sepro’s ability to supply all the major equipment as a single engineered package is a tremendous benefit to a relatively small operator such as ourselves with limited in-house engineering resources”.
Sepro is exceptionally pleased to have been awarded this order by Hemco and look forward to reporting on the commissioning of this project in early 2013.
