Lihir recovery improvement options
•
•
•
•
Increase float fines recovery by
Increase utilisation of installed float tails leach (FTL) facility
by addressing backend capacity constraints
• Autoclave improvements reduced available space in Counter
Current Decantation (CCD) unit for FTL
Adding low cost CCD bypass to leach circuit for full FTL use
Modelling of back end system to identify equipment
bottlenecks
Looking to balance of float tails to be unlocked by
debottlenecking Carbon In Leach and carbon systems
Engineering started on shortlisted options to define capital
cost and economic amount of float tails to process
Optimising front end processing to improve recovery
Exploring alternative classification systems to send gold
streams to more optimal recovery systems
