The Acid Plant Rectification project started in 2005, including modification of both the Tower and Contact Plants. CURRENT WATERVAL SMELTER OPERATIONS The smelter objective is to process wet concentrate to produce crushed, slow-cooled, sulphur-deficient nickel-copper matte rich in platinum group metals,

Platinum Crush will own the new facility, which will cost approximately $350 million to build. When the plant becomes operational around March 2024, it will crush 38.5 million bushels of soybeans annually, or 110,000 bushels daily. It will also create 50 high-quality jobs. Platinum Crush, by the Numbers
Platinum producers evaluate process routes and their value chain alternative to conventional matte smelting treatment, which is presented in Figure 1. Projects are evaluated for cost-effective processing with low-grade ores and in some cases higher content of deleterious elements such as chromium .
The consequent impact on Mogalakwena’s unit cost was an 18% increase to R18,522 per platinum ounce. Excluding the impact of the lower ore capitalisation and increased waste stripping, unit cost increases 9%, benefiting from higher production but offset by above-inflationary cost increases eg diesel and labour. Cash
Setting Up Cost of Complete Palm Oil Mill: When it comes to to the complete palm oil processing plant cost, the total equipment price is greatly affected by production output and process design. The equipment price is around $20,000~$30,000 for establishing a 5~10 ton/d small palm fruit oil milling factory.
Anglo American Platinum lowered its production forecasts after water leaks at one of its processing plant led to its closure. It has been broken down several times this year. The miner said the unit requires extensive work and will be fully rebuilt next year. The closure of the unit has led it to lower its refined platinum group metals

SHURUGWI-based Anglo-American Platinum Miners, Unki Mine''s $62 million platinum processing plant is now complete and is expected to be commissioned by President Mnangagwa in January next year. Construction of the plant commenced in 2016 as the company heeded Government''s call on value addition and beneficiation.
The six platinum group metals (PGMs) occur together in nature alongside nickel and copper. Mineable deposits of PGMs are very rare, with annual production amounting to around 400 tonnes, several orders of magnitude lower than many common metals. Due to their economic values and higher quantities, platinum and palladium are the most
Platinum-group metals (PGMs) occur in a layer averaging 2.4m-thick and are associated with pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and pentlandite. As of December 2019, Stillwater is estimated to contain mineral reserves of 26.8Mt at a grade of 19.4g/t containing 16.7Moz, while East Boulder is expected to hold 21.5Mt of reserves at 14.7g/t with 10.2Moz of
Platinum Crush will own the new facility, which will cost approximately $350 million to build. Groundbreaking is slated for late 2021. When the plant becomes operational around March 2024, it will crush 38.5 million bushels of soybeans annually, or 110,000 bushels daily. It will also create 50 to 60 high-quality jobs.

This is why we have different notions of platinum production costs. Traditionally, the industry used cash cost, which focused only on the mining and processing costs incurred. But in 2013, the WGC published a guidance note on all-in sustaining costs and all-in costs metrics. The former concept is an extension of the existing “cash cost
