FLEXMINE 500 silver dressed for La Colorada

Flex1Redaelli is taking part, with Pan American Silver and JS Redpath, to the La Colorada Expansion project that is currently underway.

La Colorada is an underground polymetallic silver mine located in the Sierra Madre mountain range in Zacatecas, Mexico.

The project’s main components include:

  1. New 600-metre deep shaft and hoisting system.
  2. The development of new mining zones, the expansion of the mining fleet
  3. Expansion of the sulphide treatment plant to approximately 1,500 tons per day
  4. Expansion and upgrade to the mine’s dewatering and ventilation systems
  5. Expansion of the tailings storage facilities and the construction of a new power line.

Redaelli supplies Flexmine 500 because Flexmine ropes are the best choice for sinking applications in deep shaft mining, why?

High breaking strength, flexibility, resistance to rotation, crushing and wear are Flexmine’s main characteristics.

Redaelli is proud to be helping both companies by supplying them with our famous Flexmine family of ropes.
