Zambian EMEW Plant Update

All building materials and equipment are now on site near Kitwe, as well as the 1050 kva generator. It is intended that the 1050 kva generator will provide back up power supply to the plant with excess power generated being sold back to the grid. The leach circuit design was awarded to African Mining Consultants in Zambian who have subsequently prepared the mass balances and flow sheet for the leach circuit and initial equipment list.

An application for environmental compliance in the form of an Environmental Preliminary Brief (EPB) has been submitted to the Environmental Council of Zambia for approval. Once this approval is received we will be able to construct the leach circuit, pour concrete, erect the EMEW building and install the EMEW plant.
