Introduction Welcome to the Lucky Penny Mining Co! Our Copper Production Offers… High Production Efficiency Safety and Environmental Protection Benefits for the Workforce, Industry
5
Site Location Population of 10,000 Approximately 480km North of Montreal Industrial Zone of 250 Acres Chibougamau, Quebec
6
Site Location Near Abundant Water Supply Materials and Products Easily Transported Site Layout Site Advantages
7
Safety Our Highest Priority Proposed Safety and Operation Training Centre Emergency Code for Efficiency of Safety Procedures Chemicals Handled According to Standardized MSDS Data Sheets Emergency First Aid Centre Plant Safety
8
Safety Hazardous Waste Will be Disposed of Accordingly Products are not Hazardous to the Environment Environment Safety
9
Grinding Copper Concentrate is ground down with Multiple Ball and Hammer Mills Approximately 480km North of Quebec Industrial Zone of 250 Acres Overview
10
Leaching Titanium Provides Superior Corrosion Protection Outer Steel Provides Strength Clad Construction Titanium Alloys can be Selectively Applied in Specific Regions to Maximize Performance Low Maintenance and Long Vessel Life Span Autoclave
11
Leaching Option 1: Pure Oxygen Explosive substance Need for storage Purchase and Transportation costs Option 2: Air Purification Expensive Equipment Extracts only 93% oxygen Option 3: Air Direct and Free Source Nitrogen and Argon Gases are Inert No Need for Storage Oxygen Supply
12
Leaching Lignosol Liquid: Difficult to Store and Transport Requires Extra Storage Equipment Abundant in Amount Less Expensive; Less Purity Powder: Storage and Transportation Easily Manageable Limited Availability Expensive; High Purity
13
Counter Current Thickners High–Rate Thickners Settling solids quicker Achieving quicker underflow density Reduction in space environment Separation more than 20 times more effective Cyclical designs provide long operation life
14
Counter Current Epoxy-Coated Piping longer lasting operating time cost efficient material lower handling costs
15
Waste Management Produces Needed Sulfuric Acid Helps Reuse the Sulfur Rather Than Disposing of it Generates 1435.8 kW/h of Electricity to Run the Plant Selling the Sulfuric Acid Would Generate a Profit of $0.9 million Annually Sulfur Recycling
16
Waste Management Allows Another Company to Use Our Waste for their Benefit Less Waste Would Go to the Tailing Pond Selling Ferric Oxide
17
Electrowinning Eliminates Any Organics Through Vigorous Filtration Reduce Lead Contamination Titanium Cathode Bus Bars, Contacts Intend to Upgrade to Titanium Cathodes in Future Maximum Current Density
18
Electrowinning Flow Chart
19
Electrowinning Plant is Completely Mobile Tanks are Arranged So that Further Addition of Tanks is Possible Plant Flexibility and Mobility
20
Electrowinning Easiest Way to Extract Silver from Sulfuric Acid Solution Silver is Extremely Pure When Collected on Cathodes No Extremely Large Additions to the Plant (Just a Few More Electrowinning Cells) Silver Recovery
21
Electrowinning Heap Leaching Used for Low Grade Ores at Reduced Cost Less Tailing Pond Wastes and Solid Liquid Separation Steps Merrill-Crowe has Lower Costs Both Capital and Annual No Need to Concentrate Solution After Leaching Cyanide Solution Can be Recyled in Merrill-Crowe but Not in Other Processes Such as Carbon in Pulp Gold Recovery
22
Conclusion Environmentally Friendly, Wastes are Converted into Potential Profit Promoting Continuous Employee Safety Benefit for the Mining Industry Setting Benchmarks in Copper Production
