IMG_0837-1-e1513337160983.jpg

Mining in Egypt with the APT GoldKacha concentrator has proven to be a success as shown by the recent feedback from our client mining in that region. This particular Egypt mine site is processing material for optimal gold recovery and the client was pleased with the results. We could say much more about this one, but we'll let the pictures do the talking. mining in egypt gold recovery

A previous client said of the GoldKacha "I have used APT's GoldKacha on a variety of alluvial projects in the most adverse and remote locations around the globe and they have proven themselves time again to be the ideal units for excellent recoveries in a multitude of applications. With their low operating costs and used in conjunction with the RG30 mobile configuration, the GoldKacha has been instrumental for assessing alluvial deposits and exploration. They are a must in any miners tool kit." 

If you are looking to go mining in Egypt for gold or other minerals, APT is worth approaching. We engineer and supply modular mining equipment catering to a variety of locations and environments, of which we will be showing more of here on our website. We currently have an archive of videos of our equipment on site or in-house. These range from recent installations to those dating back to a few years ago. This allows you to truly get a feel of what we at APT do. For videos of the GoldKacha being used on site as well as other gold recovery plants and bulk mineral recovery plants, please visit our videos page here.

Well done to the team! Thank you to our clients for their continued and valued support. We look forward to working with you.

African Mining Brief: APT's feature

Screen-Shot-2017-12-15-at-10.42.27-AM.png

APT recently did an interview for African Mining Brief, titled "Remove Regulatory Hurdles for Small Mining to Grow". If you are new to our website or the mining world, APT specialize in modular mining equipment, so we cover all bases from small scale start up mining, to mining projects on a much larger scale but in keeping with our modular philosophies. What we do is take away all un-necessary extra's and ensure you are left with a streamline design, engineered with your project in mind and the knowledge of what you require. The African Mining Brief interview was in the context of mining in South Africa within the small scale sector, although the same principles apply throughout the industry and beyond South Africa's borders. "APT is well-equipped to give budding entrepreneurs in the small-scale mining sector a head-start. We are specialists in the engineering and supply of modular mineral processing plants, that begin at a very small mining scale, and increase in size and capacity to suit mid-tier and larger mining developments. We are are at the forefront of technology with innovative processes and plants like TriTank cyanidation systems and TriFloat flotation systems.”

Our strength lies in that APT has been catering to the small mining sector since its inception when, after working in the mineral testwork sector, it was realized that the equipment necessary to implement our innovations simply didn't exist, or was inappropriate. APT was formed to address this need, thus ultimately addressing the needs of small scale miners locally and then globally. We also started to apply our knowledge and capabilities to larger scale projects and the rest is history!

"It is not our objective to become a large process engineering company like everybody else. Rather, our objective is to extend our winning formula into big projects into the wider industry. I believe we have and will continue to be at the forefront of this exciting drive into the future” - Kevin Peacocke (CEO)

APT- Modular Mining Equipment Engineers and Suppliers

Mining Equipment For Sale in South Africa | APT

Picture--e1512651105928.jpg

Mining equipment for sale in South Africa has been made simple with APT. If you did not know, APT is based in Johannesburg, South Africa, but we operate worldwide dealing directly with the client in most cases. We work alongside APT distributors across the globe who are well-versed in their territory as well as everything APT, enabling you to find us and them to bring our equipment and philosophy to you. Our Head Office is where we like to think most of the magic happens; we thrive on hearing the hum of the plants being manufactured while sitting on our deck discussing all things mining and admiring everything coming together. As much as you want your mine site to be a success, so do we. With many other mining equipment engineers and suppliers based in Johannesburg and the surrounds, we set out to show what sets APT apart and makes us different.

APT was created not as a competitor to pre-existing companies, but as a solution to fill the void that existed in the mining industry. What we wanted to create was a company that offered exactly what was required by the customer, no compromise.

In a market that relies heavily upon technology that has stood the test of time, very few are willing to challenge what was, and create what is. APT took this as an opportunity to not only look for new solutions to solve ongoing metallurgical problems, but to develop new processes within our industry. Equipped with in-house laboratories, our own manufacturing facilities and a highly innovative design team, APT has created mineral processing equipment and solutions that are far superior to what is out there. But that isn’t enough for us. We have a continuously running Research and Development team to keep our ideas active, and ensure that our technology is constantly at the forefront of the industry.

You may ask how we manage to apply this formula in such a dwindling time for the mining industry. Market trends have changed in such a way that the mining industry is no longer looking toward mass production as the investment simply isn’t there. Rather what prevails as the up and coming are the smaller, risk-averse projects and this is where our fundamental formula will always hold steadfast. There is still a significant amount of activity in this sector and a demand for simple efficient solutions that are fast to get moving and wont set you back immensely on the financial side. We see this as an opportunity for us to deliver our sustainable business solutions to the customer, from start to finish.

We do the entire package and are able to follow your ore from testwork, through the design phase, into manufacture, installation and commissioning, all while maintaining close contact with the customer. In a fragile market there is no room for mistakes. We like to offer the security that we are looking after you to the best of our ability. We aren’t a company that goes by the books, running on routine rather than innovation. We continuously think out the box, and tailor our solutions to each individual customer to ensure that what we offer is the best that they can get. We employ a team of highly skilled, experienced engineers in conjunction with some well-educated, fresh faces to keep the new ideas and innovation alive. This gives us a powerful capability to deliver a quality, advanced solution in the shortest possible time and at highly competitive rates.

Not Just Fishing For Gold!

IMG_0227-e1510312437608.jpg

The end of October proved to be an eventful month for us here at APT, not just in the office but also out in the field. This time, however, it was in a different way than we are used to. APT was proud to sponsor two Hamba Bamba teams at this years’ Kariba Invitation Tiger Fish Tournament (KITFT), one of which was the only exclusively woman’s team for the second year running. Now why would mining equipment engineers and suppliers sponsor a fishing tournament? The tournament began in the 1960’s in Zimbabwe and has been going ever since. We have seen the effort that has gone into keeping such an event going and realise the importance of showing support. Also, it is simply a huge amount of fun and that is something that everyone needs! Both Hamba Bamba teams did us proud, and congratulations from APT to all participants at the tournament!

APT Awarded Modular JCRD100 10 Tonne Per Hour Gravity Gold Recovery Plant to Ghana

4-e1510297191246.jpg

APT has been awarded an order for a JCRD100, a hard rock 10 tonne per hour gravity gold recovery plant, heading to Ghana. The client asked for a fast track supply, ergonomic plant to cater for oxidized hard rock free gold on a surface deposit. Emphasis was placed upon having a plant design with a high gravity recovery, small footprint, easy installation, low maintenance and no mercury utilization within the process. The hard rock plant is comprised of a JC100 primary jaw crusher followed by two RD50 wet impact grinders. The crushed product feeds directly into 4 GoldKacha concentrators which are fitted with the Goldilox secure and automated purging system. The Goldilox system ensures security of the concentrates which are fed directly into locked and secured concentrates boxes, while purging is controlled by an ingenious digital timer valve configuration. Periodically, the concentrates boxes are wheeled to an adjacent APT GoldRoom for upgrading on an ST500 concentrates upgrade table. Free gold recovered off the table will be smelted in an in-house P100 furnace.

The plant is supplied with a generator, full internal electrical reticulation, internal water and slurry pumps, piping and a water supply pond, all facilitating plug-and-play operation on site. The plant will be manufactured, pre-plumbed, pre-wired and test run at APT's mining equipment assembly workshop in Johannesburg, South Africa and will be ready for shipping by container in a few weeks' time.

This is another breakthrough in the mercury free gold processing thrust for West and North Africa. APT recently air freighted a 3 tonne per hour RG30 washing plant also with GoldKacha/Goldilox features to Ghana, as well as supplying the equipment for a mercury free gravity gold recovery centre which is currently nearing completion in Sudan.

As always the emphasis is on a fast and thorough build, easy field implementation with clean and efficient recovery of free gold. We look forward to the build and installation of this plant, and a happy client at the end! Congratulations APT team.

Modular Cyanidation Plant in Zimbabwe: APT TriTank TT20

tt20.jpg

APT's modular cyanidation plant, the TriTank TT20, has taken off with one being recently delivered to a client in Zimbabwe and another immediately ordered thereafter for a separate client. This plant is currently under manufacture and will be ready for delivery within just two weeks. True to APT, the plant is expected to be well engineered, well manufactured and will run in a far more efficient manner than conventional cyanidation tanks. The TriTank does not have the same design as conventional tanks; it incorporates 6 separate tanks into one neat, modular and efficient plant. The benefits are outlined here and we recommend giving it a read if you are new to the APT TriTank concept. modular cyanidation plant

In addition to these entry level plants APT has also received two very significant TriTank CIL plant orders; the first is for a client in Sudan where three TT500 (500 cubic meter each) CIL tanks will be installed on the dissolution train with an additional APT Detox system, also comprising of a TriTank. Below is a video of a similar larger scale modular cyanidation plant, and more on site mining videos can be viewed here.

Mining Equipment Suppliers South Africa: plants headed out lately!

o2.jpg

As mining equipment suppliers in South Africa, not everyone around the globe gets to really see what we are all about, so we endeavor to show you as much as we can and this week, we're showing you the latest plants that have headed out. As always, our plants are manufactured, pre-assembled, pre-pluged and pre-wired all in-house, before being disassembled and packaged for their journey to site. This process allows us to have as much control as possible, ensuring our equipment is manufactured fast and efficiently.

First up, the team working on an RG30 with Goldilox alluvial processing plant. The Goldilox system provides full automation of the GoldKacha gravity concentrator as well as protection of the concentrates, allowing for secure and continuous operation.

Manufacture on this RG30 has been completed. Next to assemble the complete alluvial plant before delivery to Indonesia.

Delayed by Irma, one of these guys is finally on its way to site via a very long path travelling from South Africa, to England, to Miami and finally the Dominican Republic.

The latest RG30T, ready to be collected by the customer and destined for an exploration exercise in a neighboring country. This plant was completed in record time of three and a half weeks. You can read more about this fully comprehensive mobile gold processing plant here.

Packed and ready to go. An RDGK15 gravity concentration plant destined for East Africa.
