Hard-Rock Ore Preparation & Recovery Project — Kitwe, Zambia
An integrated crushing, grinding and separation configuration developed from ore characteristics and recovery targets.
Project Brief
Design begins with the material and finished product.
This configuration links hard-rock ore preparation with crushing, grinding, classification and a test-selected recovery stage. Final equipment sizing is adjusted to mineralogy, head grade, liberation size, recovery target, water balance, tailings requirements and available testwork.
Project Challenge
Variable ore characteristics and test-dependent recovery.
Mineral-processing performance depends on liberation behavior and separation response rather than nominal crusher capacity alone. The circuit must coordinate size reduction, circulating load, water use and recovery targets.
HNLANGBO Solution
A staged preparation, grinding and separation route.
HNLANGBO develops the flowsheet from available ore analysis and beneficiation tests, matching primary and secondary crushing with grinding, classification and the appropriate gravity, flotation or magnetic separation stage.
Recommended Process Route
From run-of-mine ore to separated products.
Vibrating Feeder
Regulated feed and preliminary fines separation.
Jaw Crushing
Initial reduction of large hard-rock feed.
Cone Crushing
Efficient reduction with controlled product shape.
Multi-Deck Screen
Classification into specified finished fractions.
Conveying System
Separate transfer and storage of final products.

Buyer Questions
Practical buying questions.
A few practical answers to help you prepare your enquiry.
Is the processing capacity guaranteed before testwork?
No. It is a planning basis. Final capacity depends on confirmed feed characteristics, product distribution and operating conditions.
Can the recovery method be selected without ore testing?
Yes. Screens, process stages and recirculation are selected around the confirmed product specification and market requirement.
Can HNLANGBO provide a complete line?
The agreed scope can include feeding, crushing, screening, conveying, electrical control, steel structures and selected auxiliary systems.
What information is needed for the next step?
Provide material, maximum feed size, target capacity, required products, project country, voltage and any available analysis or layout.
