vssmnn Posted March 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Alexander Mining builds new pilot plant in DRC http://www.iii.co.uk/articles/14462/alexander-mining-builds-new-pilot-plant-drc Alexander Mining (AXM) has teamed up with Anvil Mining to build a new pilot cobalt processing plant in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The AIM-traded company said the joint venture would create a plant large enough to treat a total of 150,000 tonnes of cobalt ore at Anvil's Mutoshi deposit located in the Kolwezi region of the west African country. The plant will employ Alexander's mineral processing technology, Ammleach, to process the ore in order to produce cobalt metal. The company hailed the deal a "major" step for its technology, adding that it had already been in discussions with numerous other parties in the DRC. As it stands, the construction and development of the pilot plant remains conditional upon the London-based company obtaining financing. Alexander chairman Matt Sutcliffe said: "We are delighted to enter into this agreement with Anvil, one of the pioneers in successfully advancing the mining industry in the DRC. The agreement is a major advance for Ammleach." Revenue generated from the sale of cobalt produced from the pilot plant will be used first to repay Alexander's capital and operating costs and secondly, to repay costs incurred by Anvil. Any remaining revenue will be shared equally between the pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vssmnn Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 African Metals held up by violence and rain 2012-01-23 National elections in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) have held up African Metals (AFR-V) in the development of its Luisha South copper and cobalt project. The turmoil around the elections - elections in which Joseph Kabila was declared the winner amidst much speculation over the authenticity of the results - led to key expatriate contractors having to leave the country. Their exit came after violent clashes were reported between supporters of different presidential candidates. The exodus of top personnel put a halt to the construction of the dense media separation (DMS) plant. The company reports, however, that the contractors have returned under a stabilized political situation. And as if political turmoil wasn't enough, heavy seasonal rain storms also contributed to delays, with the wet weather halting the concreting and plant assembly programs. The DMS module needed to be hauled onto the concrete pads and the company found the conditions too wet for towing. It says such delays have put it back several weeks from opening the plant and that it is continuing to drain the site of access water. African Metals says final assembly will continue into January, but it expects to have the plant running and processing ore from stockpiles on site by early January. As for what has been finished, the company reports that the feed bin, primary crusher, control units and generator are all in place, and that the assembly of the spirals bank and conveyor belt modules are also finished. Africa Metals has a 75% stake in Luisha South with an option to increase its stake to 90%. The project sits 80 km northwest of Lubumbashi in the copper-rich Katanga Province of the DRC. The site hosted a historic mine that produced 230,000 tonnes of ore at 10.1% copper and 2% cobalt. The mine was closed in the forties. The DMS plant is expected to produce concentrates grading 32% copper and 1.2% cobalt, while the spiral plant should produce concentrates grading 28% copper and 1.6% cobalt. The company plans to process stockpiled ore that amounts to 380,000 tonnes grading 1% copper and 0.4% cobalt, and says it can generate US$1.3 million in revenue from the stockpiles from a US$500,000 investment. On Dec. 30 - the day delays were announced - the company's shares were flat at 12¢. Its shares have fluctuated between 44¢ and 12¢ over the last 52-week period.
