The gold extraction plant in Kokpatas is a pioneering project in the field of sustainable processing of complex, sulphide ores. In collaboration with the Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Combine (NGMK), we have developed and expanded a plant that revolutionizes the potential of gold-bearing ores by using state-of-the-art bio-oxidation technology. This technology sets new standards to increase processing efficiency and respond to the growing demands of the global gold market.
Commissioning: 1st expansion stage 2009, 2nd expansion stage 2011
- Client: Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Combine (NGMK)
- Location: Kokpatas, Uzbekistan
- Type of contract/services: Overall project planning, delivery and commissioning
