Statement from
“I’m pleased to announce that we have begun production at Pilivili, ahead of our target of the middle of the quarter. The move of Wet Concentrator Plant B represents the final stage of our growth programme and we are well-positioned to produce 1.2 million tonnes per annum of ilmenite from 2021. This is expected to deliver expanded margins and increased free cash flow generation, with the opportunity for stronger shareholder returns.”
WCP B and its dredge were relocated 23 kilometres from their previous mining location of Namalope to the high grade Pilivili ore zone. Following the move, the plant and dredge were floated across the Mualadi river and into the starter pond. Mining was previously targeted for mid-Q3 2020 but has now commenced ahead of schedule.
Photographs of the move are available on Kenmare’s website and on the Company’s Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter feeds, and this animation provides further information on how the move was undertaken.
