The criteria are clear, universally agreed upon and accepted, the solution for the small scale mining entrants who dominate vast amounts of today’s mining resources must be:

• Low in capex

• Robust

• Efficient

• Complete

• Energy efficient

• Chemical and mercury free

• Simple and easy to operate  

We at APT have taken this sector seriously for a long time, we even created a separate division, The Groundbreaker’s to cater for them. We have methodically checked off each of the criteria so that we are absolutely confident that the solution we offer is entirely suitable. We call it the APT FIRST GOLD PLANT, with all the connotations upon the word first intended. Our impact grinders are not just a hammer mill like everyone else’s, ours is designed to be solid and sturdy with easily replaceable wear parts. Our concentrator is the world renowned GoldKacha, now an industry standard, and we finish off the package with a concentrate upgrader and pans so that the final product is metallic gold.

Somebody who acquires a FIRST GOLD PLANT in the morning will be looking at their final production that same afternoon, nothing to add but a small 6kVA generator to run the minor electrical items.

Ideal for small entrepreneurial mining startups as well as Corporate Governance Programmes and mercury replacement projects, the APT FIRST GOLD PLANT isn’t a solution in development, it is a PROVEN solution ready to simply install.

Truly the SILVER BULLET.
