Summary
Tartana Minerals Limited announced commencement of upgrades to its Copper Sulphate Pentahydrate plant located on the Tartana Mining Leases. These upgrades aim to enhance production capacity and reliability, focusing on the replacement of the chiller circuit, a vital component in the crystallization process, with a total committed expenditure of $0.435 million. The initiative follows a $4.5 million placement and an independent review of plant operations, and is expected to be completed in approximately six weeks. The plant upgrade is set to increase the production capacity to approximately 135 tonnes per month, significantly raising the potential revenue given the current high LME copper prices. Tartana has also identified higher-grade pit fill zones for stacking on existing heaps, further optimizing copper leaching processes.
