In the leach circuit, we sequence lifts and pad development. We simulate equipment movement to ensure our plans are realistic. We model equipment use to accurately forecast equipment requirements. We constantly seek ways to improve equipment design to support innovative stacking methodologies.
Crushing and screening plants are designed for ease of operation and maintenance. Equipment is selected from previous experience to provide ease of access and high maintainability. Special attention is given to wear material selection.
Because of our operating and maintenance experience, TNT can develop very accurate operating and maintenance budgets. We communicate effectively with civil and geotechnical groups to minimize development and construction costs.
