Vast Resources PLC (AIM:VAST) has completed construction of a second milling circuit in the processing plant at the Baita Plai polymetallic mine in Romania, six weeks ahead of schedule.
The second milling circuit further optimises the operations at Baita Plai and doubles milling capacity at the plant.
Processing capacity now stands at 14,000 tonnes per month.
“Our mining volumes are steadily increasing, and are expected to increase dramatically with the implementation and ramp up of long-hole stope mining commencing from next month,” said Andrew Prelea, chief executive of Vast Resources.
“The commissioning of this second milling circuit – achieved six weeks ahead of schedule – will support increased concentrate production moving forward. Our operations at Baita Plai are ramping up encouragingly and I am confident that this will be reflected in our future production and sales reports.”
