AM King of Oroville, California USA recently brokered the sale of a 200 tph Ore Sorting System including Steinert KSS 200 (2 Meter) Ore Sorter, Grant Aggregates Transfer Conveyors, McLanahan Samplers, and Synergy Thermo Weightometers. AM KING managed the marketing, inspections, and sale of the Ore Sorter System.
AM KING detailed the benefits of leveraging the existing Ore Sorting System versus purchasing a comparable newly manufactured system in the original proposal to MineWater:
- Repurposing the Ore Sorting System will save MW significant capital costs (over 60% savings.)
- Repurposing the Ore Sorting System will reduce lead time for the equipment from 12 Months (manufacture new one) to 2 Months (dismantle and shipping.)
- Repurposing the Ore Sorting System will allow MW to commission their project 10 Months earlier than planned.Repurposing the Ore Sorting System will save countless Tons of embedded C02 compared to manufacturing a new system.
- Repurposing the Ore Sorting System is the most sustainable option for the project.
About MineWater’s Project
MineWater’s Joseph Harrington stated, “The ore sorting project will recover tens of millions of pounds of heavy metals for recycling thereby protecting critical water resources for downstream users.”
The project is a significant win for all parties and the circular economy – the seller of the equipment is contributing by providing surplus equipment to be repurposed and the purchaser is leveraging surplus equipment to reduce the carbon footprint, while the end project is using the equipment to clean up the waste rock more efficiently from past mining operations.
