Ardea delivers nickel-cobalt processing boost
|
Ardea Resources says “algorithmic modelling” of the resource base at its Goongarrie Hub nickel and cobalt project near Kalgoorlie in WA could maximise the resource utilisation and potentially boost nickel-cobalt production. The modelling has enabled the company to match different types of mineralogy at the project with two separate leaching methods to potentially allow for simultaneous processing of different types of mineralisation. |
