Earlier this month, it was announced that Metso Outotec was chosen as the supplier of the crushing and grinding equipment for the Blackwater project. Sedgman Canada, which is responsible for the project’s engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPC), executed an agreement with Metso Outotec to secure the pricing and delivery schedule for the equipment.
Located about 446 km northeast of Vancouver, Blackwater comprises the construction, operation and closure of an open pit gold mine and ore processing facilities that will be developed in multiple stages. Over an estimated 22-year mine life, it is expected to produce an average of 339,000 oz. gold per year.
