We at APT are proud to bring you our RD50 and RD100 Hard Rock Processing Plants, offering highly economical solutions for rapid gold production on a small to medium scale. Leading on from our small scale RDGK, these two robust and compact solutions are rated for up to 5tph and 10tph respectively, and are perfectly suited to the liberation of minerals at a relatively coarse size.

GK-X Tailings Plant

Q: What is it?         

A: The GK-X Tailings Plant is a simple plant to allow feeding up to 10tph into a GK-X concentrator. Material is dumped into the tray feeder and water monitored into the GK-X concentrator.  

Q: Why was it introduced/what is its purpose?         

A: Its purpose is to capture free gold and residual mercury from tailings. This simple tray feeder plant was introduced because it is not necessary to have a scrubbing drum for these loose tailings.

Q: Benefits?                         

A: Capital cost is much lower than a formal RG scrubbing plant, which in this case is unnecessary. The plant is small and compact and therefore easy to set up initially and then move thereafter.

RD50 Hard Rock Plant

Q: What is it?                       

A: The RD50 is an RD impact crusher coupled with a simple tray manual feeder for the rock at -70mm size. Capacity is up to 5tph.

Q: Why was it introduced/what is its purpose?         

A: This plant was designed to crush rock to liberate the gold via impact crusher and then capture this in APT’s GoldKacha concentrators. The system uses a very simple feed tray to manually feed the RD50 crusher with the slurry feeding directly to 3 x GoldKacha concentrators.

Q: Benefits? 

A: The system is extremely simple and cost effective but has the same metallurgical performance as more complex and costly plants.

RD100 Hard Rock Plant

Q: What is it?                       

A: The RD100 is made up of 2 x RD50 impactor mills in parallel, feeding their slurry to APT’s GK-X high G centrifugal concentrator. Capacity is up to 10tph.

Why was it introduced/what is its purpose?

A: The purpose is to crush rock to liberate the gold via impact crusher and then capture the gold in one of APT’s GK-X centrifugal concentrators.

Q: Benefits?                         

A: The system is extremely simple and cost effective but has the same metallurgical performance as more complex and costly plants.
