Heap Leach Stacking project for copper mine in USA
TNT’s Super Portable® Heap Leach Stacking System was the ideal solution for an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) project for a copper mine in the USA, where extreme temperatures ranging from -18°C min — 46°C max were expected. The Super Portable® technology demonstrated its versatility by successfully operating on slopes up to 8° and being fully mobile and self-propelled with variable frequency drive (VFD) controlled crawler tracks, making it a convenient and efficient choice for the project.
