Global Mining Review,
The processing plant is operating reliably with uninterrupted operations for the past eight days. Mill throughput is set to ramp up to nameplate capacity of 125 t/hr over the course of 3Q22.
Mining operations at the Scotia mining centre open pits and the OK underground mine are progressing well with approximately 160 000 t of ore stocks on the ROM and available for processing.
Pantoro Managing Director Paul Cmrlec said:
“We are very pleased to confirm our first gold production at Norseman, which represents the culmination of approximately three years of hard work. Norseman has been taken from a dormant site with no ore reserves or usable processing facility to full operational status.
There have been some unexpected delays resulting from minor but frustrating equipment start up and control programming issues during commissioning, however we are confident that all of those issues have now been resolved and the plant is operating well.
We thank all of our staff and contractors for their dedication to achieving this outcome during the past three years, along with our joint venture partner, Tulla Resources Plc.”
