Eight of the thickeners are of 35-meter diameter. The equipment deliveries will be staggered with final shipment taking place at the end of September 2008. Plant start-up is scheduled for late 2009.
Components for the project are to be supplied from South Africa and Germany with the engineering being done in Salt Lake City, U.S.A. and detail drawings being generated in Germany. All project management will be handled by FLSmidth Minerals' South African office located in Johannesburg.
FLSmidth Minerals offers both hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical systems for the nickel ore processing industry. This Tati Nickel project comes on top of three other major nickel processing orders received in the past year totaling over US$200 million, making FLSmidth Minerals a global leader in supplying nickel ore processing technologies and equipment.
