How we work · A gravity plant in ten steps
Every plant walks the same ten steps.
Prove the ore, permit the site, let the shaking table decide the circuit. The concrete is poured and the steel erected by BENEFSAN, inside the same offer as the machines, the installation and the water treatment — one responsible party from the drill core to the first concentrate.
Method
Ten stations from a drill core to a running gravity plant
Prove the ore by drilling, permit the site, let the shaking table decide the circuit — then design, pour the concrete, erect the steel, order the machines, install and energise. Ten stations from a drill core to a running gravity plant. Scroll or swipe to walk the line; the arrow keys work too.
-
Prove
Station 01 — Core · assay · model
Drilling proves tonnage and grade before anything is designed.
-
Prove
Station 02 — Licence · permits
Mining licence and site permissions secured up front.
-
Prove
Station 03 — Sampling · gravity tests
The sample runs on the shaking tables at Bursa; the ore shows how it separates.
-
Design
Station 04 — Flowsheet · layout
Test results become a gravity circuit; the circuit lands on the site plan.
-
Build
Station 05 — Concrete · steel
Foundations poured and steel erected by BENEFSAN, inside the same offer.
-
Order
Station 06 — Crushing · screening
The long-lead primary package goes on order first.
-
Order
Station 07 — Gravity circuit
Mills, classifiers and shaking tables — the concentrating heart, per test work.
-
Order
Station 08 — Water treatment · tailings
Thickeners and filters close the process-water loop and dewater the tailings.
-
Install
Station 09 — Set · align · pipe
Machines set, aligned and piped into a single line.
-
Energise
Station 10 — Electrics · automation
Cabled, instrumented, commissioned — handed over running.
Engineering output
The circuit lands on the site plan
Station 04 ends with drawings, not a brochure: the 3D arrangement, the elevations and the IFC package the civil and steel crews build from — all of it inside the BENEFSAN offer.
