QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Mar 5, 2015) - Robex Resources Inc. ("Robex" and/or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:RBX)(RB4.F) is pleased to announce that they plan to restart the Nampala mine as of the 3rd quarter of 2015 with a capacity of 4,000 tons / day.
The ore processing consulting firm, Soutex Inc., will shortly be completing the process diagrams (P&ID) of the mine and of the gold room which will allow them to proceed to 4,000 t/d. This work will include a list of all the equipment needed for this achievement. The big equipment needed for this increase in tonnage that require a longer delivery delay and are in the process of being ordered.
The grinder, equipment that will treat the coarse ore in which the gold content is much higher than in the finer part of the ore, has already been ordered. This grinder was purchased new and has a capacity of 4,000 t/d.
In addition, the construction company Imagri Inc. is currently working on the location and construction engineering layouts. Four CIL leach tanks will be added and the agitators have already been ordered from the manufacturer. The addition of these tanks will increase the gold recovery during the treatment.
In addition, the Company and their partners are currently working on an early restart solution with a reduced tonnage, using existing facilities and equipment, as soon as the improvements in the gold room permits it.
Moreover, Robex continued, following the cessation of production in October, to treat the gold that was contained in the coal. To this day, the coal has been fully treated. This operation has allowed them to pour a 12 KG gold bar (twelve kg).
George Cohen said: "I am extremely enthusiastic and proud to see the work that is currently done in regards to the relaunch of the Nampala mine."
