Readers are reminded that the plant at Telamayu will not be a bioleach facility. It is anticipated that conventional processing equipment for recovering metal in the tailings will be employed. In addition, the processing of tailings should reduce acid rock generation in the tailings.
Project Overview
The Telamayu project involves the environmental remediation of the "Antiguo" tailings with an option on the larger "Nuevo" tailings, both situated at the Telamayu mill site near the town of Atocha in the Department of Potosi in Bolivia.
The existing Telamayu mill concentrator has generated the Antiguo and Nuevo tailings by processing mineralized material from the surrounding mines for over 80 years. There is considerable infrastructure at the mill site including high voltage power, rail, mill housing, and a local workforce.
