Terex MPS process plant for Seneca Crushing and Screening

/

As part of its Design, Build, Own and Operate (DBOO) operating model – a 2020 extension to its traditional crushing and screening business – leading South African contractor, Seneca Crushing and Screening, recently opted for a turnkey, bespoke process plant from Terex Mineral Processing Systems (MPS) for a Northern Cape contract. Despite the short lead time, Terex MPS successfully commissioned the 550 tph plant on time, with a layout that fitted within the limited footprint available on site. By Munesu Shoko.

While contract mining is generally regarded as a mining role, there are, however, a number of operational functions conducted on a quarry or mine that fall within the civil engineering scope, which thus compel companies to register with the Bargaining Council for the Civil Engineering Industry (BCCEI). In a one-on-one with Quarrying Africa, Lindie Fourie, operations manager at the BCCEI, outlines some of these activities and why concerned parties should comply. By Munesu Shoko.

Having introduced the new generation Liebherr 5.1 wheel loader range late last year, an upgrade of the previous 5.0 generation, Liebherr-Africa reports increased local demand for the three new models – the L 550, L 566 and L 580. Key talking points are the performance increases – increased tipping load, larger bucket sizes and more engine power – resulting in 25% less fuel burn per hour and 15 % higher production.
