Gold Recovery and Mercury Remediation from Contaminated Deposits in North Africa

Currently in North Africa, an APT GoldKacha demonstration site has been set up, showing operators how they can recover gold whilst also remediating mercury from existing mercury contaminated feed material. Our distributor stated “The artisanal miners are gobsmacked. Look at all the mercury we also recovered in the GoldKacha from their ore!”

This is excellent news as the dangers of mercury contamination are becoming more widely known, and it is of utmost importance to us that artisanal miners are aware there is a solution that not only recovers gold more effectively, but also removes mercury from the environment during the process.

We look forward to taking the next steps with our clients on the road towards a safer environment with a prosperous future!

A Golden Update from West Africa! | The APT GoldKacha Exceeds Expectations

Recently, we received feedback from one of our customers in West Africa who is using the GoldKacha Concentrator on their small scale mine site. 

Astounding gold recovery was achieved in the unit, without the need for, or the use of, mercury. A huge win for the miners!

The GoldKacha is our centrifugal gravity concentrator, which can handle a capacity of up to 3tph. The unit runs off a 0.75kW electric motor, and requires a small generator and water source for operation. If you’re wanting to process on the larger scale, several units can be nested allowing your operators to treat a greater tonnage of material. Not only is the GoldKacha affordable, but it is also simple to operate and exceptionally robust, meaning no surprise breakdowns and losses in production.

Thank you to our valued client for sharing this impressive feedback with us.

Manganese Recovery Plant | Small to Medium Scale Mining

APT’s range of wash plants were created for small to medium scale miners looking to process ore from 3tph through to 150tph, and wanting to do so in a reliable, cost effective manner.

Our wash plants have been installed all over the globe, and are the basis for a range of different mineral processing options such as gold, chrome, lead, manganese and more.

Below is a 20tph installation for manganese recovery in West Africa. Simple and effective!

The GK-X | APT's Medium Scale, High Efficiency Concentrator

The APT GK-X Medium Scale, High Efficiency Concentrator outside our Head Office in preparation for shipment to one of our valued clients.

The GK-X is targeted towards medium scale miners, rated for up to 20tph solids feed in a slurry that can range from 30-60% solids. Application is either alluvial, hard rock or tailings and the feed is optimal at -2mm, although -3mm is acceptable and will allow more nugget like gold recovery in alluvial applications.

The APT GoldKacha Concentrator Does it Again with Excellent Mercury-Free Gold Recovery in Sudan

The GoldKacha Concentrator has proven itself as a ‘power plant’ in mercury-free mining. Small to medium scale miners alike incorporate the unit into their process where necessary; whether it be for continuous recovery or exploration purposes. Our client in Sudan is using the GoldKacha on milled material, and the results have been excellent!

Our client reported “The miners are over the moon with the high recovery of the GoldKacha!” and we could not be more proud to hear such great news. We look forward to their continued success.

APT Completes Manufacture of a Medium Scale Gold Processing Plant

We’ve been busy as of late packing and shipping multiple GroundBreaker orders to various locations across the globe, mostly here within Africa. Amongst these was a medium scale processing plant which will be used for gold recovery in East Africa. Pictured below is our RG200 Scrubber, which forms part of the feed preparation module for this plant.

The journey to site has begun and we look forward to sending our team of APT engineers and technicians, the core of whom have managed the in-house design and manufacture of this plant, to carry out the installation and commissioning process. With their thorough understanding of the plant, we have no doubt this will be achieved successfully in an efficient and timely manner.
