Recent Process Developments at the Phu Kham CopperGold Concentrator, Laos D Bennett1, I Crnkovic2 and P Walker3 ABSTRACT The Phu Kham deposit represents a coppergold porphyry system, with mineralisation present in skarn, stockwork and disseminated styles. Signi cant folding and alteration events have created
#0183;#32;The Phu Kham coppergold deposit (24): The deposit is located in the southwest of Xiang Khoang on the southern margin of the Truong Son terrane and along the ThakhekXepon fault zone . The mine has a resource of 240 Mt at % Cu, g/t Au and g/t Ag in 2014 and is exposed within Carboniferous and Permian carbonate and pyroclastic rocks, with skarns and porphyry veins along
The 12 Mt/y Phu Kham CopperGold deposit is located in a remote, mountainous site approximately 100 km north east of the Laos capital Vientiane and contains a mineral resource of million tonnes of copper and million ounces of gold.
The Phu Kham CopperGold Operation (Phu Kham Operation) is located in the Lao People''s Democratic Republic and is owned and operated by the Laoregistered company, Phu Bia Mining Limited (PBM). Australianheadquartered copper and gold producer, PanAust Limited holds a 90 per cent interest in PBM; the Government of Laos owns the remaining 10 per cent.
Record production at Phu Kham . PANAUST has reported strong March quarter production and cost performances at its Phu Kham and Ban Houayxai operations in Laos. Phu Kham produced a record 21,146 tonnes of copper at a C1 cost of US per pound after precious metal credits that include record gold production of 29,745 ounces.
The heart of PanAusts business is its Phu Kham CopperGold and Ban Houayxai GoldSilver Operations in Laos, both are owned at operated by its Laoregistered company, Phu Bia Mining (PBM). COVID19 preventative and containment measures were introduced across both Operations. These measures included:
Phu Kham Project (Pan Australian Resources Limited) in Laos Includes a t/d coppergold concentrator and associated infrastructure. The project was delivered on budget, with over 3 million manhours LTI free, and has set a world benchmark as the lowest cost per tonne concentrator.
The Phu Kham Increased Recovery Project is expected to result in increases to annual copper and gold production from the second half of 2013. Following drilling successes within the Phu Kham district, a brownfields exploration team is investigating potential repeats of Phu Khamstyle mineralisation along a highly prospective corridor
The 12Mt/y coppergold concentrator at Phu Kham commenced production in April 2008. Flotation copper and gold recovery from commissioning was consistently poor, due to the high levels of pyrite and problematic secondary and oxide copper species and nonsulfide gangue.
Project, which envisaged the commencement of gold production in March 2005. The Phu Bia Gold Project represents the rst phase of an initial twophase development of Pan Australians assets in Laos with the feasibility study for the much larger Phu Kham CopperGold Project scheduled for completion by August 2005.
During the March quarter 2020, the Phu Kham Operation produced 15,326 tonnes (t) of copper in concentrate at a C1* cost of US/lb after precious metal credits from 13,722 ounces (oz) of gold and 92,968oz silver. An allin sustaining cost (AISC**) of US/lb of copper was realised.
Predevelopment and Exploration. Frieda River Project, Papua New Guinea; Exploration Licences Laos is a developing nation that has seen an expansion in the mining and hydropower sectors in recent years, both of which have driven economic growth. PanAusts activities in Laos are centred on the Phu Kham CopperGold Operation,
The Phu Kham CopperGold Operation (Phu Kham) is located in northern Laos, approximately 140 kilometres from the capital, Vientiane. The operation is a producing asset for Australianbased copper and gold producer, PanAust Limited (PanAust) and is operated by Laoregistered company, Phu Bia Mining Limited (Phu Bia Mining).
The University of Queensland''s institutional repository, UQ eSpace, aims to create global visibility and accessibility of UQs scholarly research.
The major challenges to the coppergold flotation process are a wide size distribution of chalcopyrite mineralisation and poor primary grind liberation, a high pyrite content in skarn ore requiring aggressive pyrite depression conditions, clayrich gangue and nonsulfide copper mineralisation in weathered zones, and a significant association of gold with pyrite. The Phu Kham concentrator has been developed as a
Bulk ore sorting at Phu Kham copper mine, Laos Posted by John on 28th July 2017 Technoeconomic evaluation of bulk ore sorting for copper ore at the PanAust Phu Kham Operation is a paper by Walter Valery, K. Duffy, P. Holtham, A. Reple, P. Walker, and P. Rosario that was presented at IMPC 2016: XXVIII International Mineral Processing Congress, Quebec City, Canada.
