LGM Industries was engaged to supply and install the SMP portion of the North Capel Separation Mill upgrades.
Following the expansion of the Cataby Mineral Sands Mine, Iluka needed to upgrade its processing facilities at its synthetic rutile operations 4.5km North of Capel. This facility produces Ilmenite (TiO2) to feed the Capel Synthetic Rutile (SR) plants.
As part of the project, LGM fabricated and installed structural steel within the existing building, supplied and installed walkways, stairs and access platforms. Also included was the installation of supplied items into the existing building, including:
- 5 new bucket elevators.
- A gas fired fluid bed Re Heater.
- 8 Electrostatic Mineral Separators.
- 1 Aero belt conveyor.
- 3 belt conveyors.
