The Nugget Pond Processing Facility is a 500ktpa processing plant that consists of a conventional circuit that produces a high-quality concentrate historically grading between 27% and 29% copper.
The plant consists of a crushing and grinding circuit made up of a two-stage jaw crusher, a semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mill and a ball mill. The fine product is fed to a standard flotation plant consisting of roughers, scavengers and three stage cleaners. The float product is dewatered by a filter press and can then be hauled to the port for commercial shipping to market.
The processing facility is currently on care and maintenance with several options currently under consideration to utilise the asset.
