AUSTRALIAN Zircon has reached a milestone in its Mindarie mineral production operation after spending two months improving the mechanics of its plant.
On 18 June 2008, the company dispatched its first full trainload of zircon and titanium minerals for export. Previously, the operation had only been able to dispatch partial trainloads.
According to the plant operator, it managed to significantly improve its mineral recovery processes because of a rampup in productivity.
The plant staff are said to have adapted to the improved operational techniques at the plant, and the facility had undergone mechanical improvements over two months.
The upgrades were required after the company encountered oversized ore feed. It claims the production facilities are now able to handle the oversized ore feed. It also expects growing production levels as further improvements to the facilities are made.
