Global gold and copper producer Barrick Mining Corporation has chosen to use end-to-end mining solutions company Metso’s Concorde Cell flotation technology at its Lumwana expansion project, in Zambia.

The Concorde Cell flotation cells will work in combination with the TankCell technology that Barrick previously selected for the project.

The high-intensity Concorde Cell technology is Metso’s advanced solution for processing complex orebodies.

Integrating Concorde Cell with TankCell technology represents a reliable and highly effective way to optimise the flowsheet, Metso states.

The forced-air pneumatic Concorde Cell is recognised for its ability to deliver faster flotation kinetics, exceptional recovery rates of fine and ultrafine particles and improved concentrate-grade consistency. 

Lumwana is an openpit copper mine located 100 km west of Solwezi in Zambia’s Copperbelt. Barrick is expanding the mine and processing plant’s capacity to produce 240 000 t/y.
