:: IsaMill^TM Selected for Kazakhmys’ Bozshakol and Aktogay Projects in Kazakhstan

Xstrata Technology’s IsaMill^TM has been selected by leading international natural resources group Kazakhmys for copper regrind applications at its Aktogay and Bozshakol projects in Kazakhstan.

Bozshakol and Aktogay will install complete IsaMillTM Packages. Each package will include two, 3 MW, M10,000 IsaMillsTM, feed and discharge pumpboxes, pumps, pipework, control system, steel work, Xstrata Technology’s proprietary IsaChargerTM media addition system, and commissioning support. Lindsay Clark, General Manager, Mineral Processing at Xstrata Technology, said: “Xstrata Technology has been working with Kazakhmys for several years and the choice of our IsaMillTM technology for their major growth projects follows recent adoption of IsaMillsTM for regrinding in copper flotation duties by a a variety of other international copper producers with operations in Laos, Australia, Canada, Russia and Peru. This shows the growing recognition within the industry of the benefits of combining efficient grinding with the flotation benefits from inert media."

“Most clients increasingly prefer to use a complete IsaMill^TM Package, as this makes best use of our specialist experience in IsaMill^TM circuit design and operation, and minimises delivery time, engineering risk and cost."

The Kazakhmys installations will take the total installed IsaMill^TM power above 200MW from over 110 mills worldwide in base and precious metals flotation, gold leaching, industrial minerals and magnetite.
