Nugget Pond Processing Facility & Goodyear’s Cove Port
The plant consists of a crushing and grinding circuit made up of a two-stage jaw crusher, a semi-autogenous grind (SAG) and ball mill. The fine product is then fed to a standard flotation plant consisting of roughers, scavengers and three stage cleaners.
