Executive Summary
This report section details the recovery methods for the MRL Iron Ore Project. Processing operations are conducted on a day shift only to produce an iron ore fines product of less than 10mm. The ore processing facilities are operated by Rapid Crushing Pty Ltd (Rapid) under contract, with equipment installed and commissioned in late 2010.
The processing circuit involves primary, secondary, and tertiary crushing stages followed by screening. Ore is reclaimed from the Run-of-Mine (RoM) stockpile, crushed to nominal 80% less than 150 mm, and screened. Oversized material is recirculated through cone crushers. The final product is stockpiled using a radial stacker. Rapid provides operators and maintenance under MRL supervision to meet shipping requirements.
Rapid provides plant operators responsible for the operation and maintenance of the processing facilities under the supervision of MRL. Payments for crushing services are made monthly based on agreed contracted unit costs for ore tonnes crushed during the month plus a fixed cost recovery for plant. Rapid are an unrelated company to MRL and were awarded the processing contract after a tender process.
