Barplats Mines, a subsidiary of TSX- and JSE-listed platinum group metals miner Eastern Platinum (Eastplats), has entered into a project framework agreement with Advanced Beneficiation Technologies of South Africa (ABT) to complete an independent feasibility study for a tailings retreatment plant.
The independent feasibility study is for the development and construction of a new modular plant with the capacity to process the platinum group metals (PGMs) of the tailings redeposited at a designated area of the Zandfontein tailings dam, which is situated at the Crocodile River Mine in South Africa.
