The project is expected to yield approximately 1.95 million tons of additional copper over its lifespan.</p> <p>A cornerstone of this project is the Warman MCR 760 pump, which will be the largest mill circuit pump in North America. This addition complements Weir’s existing and planned installations of equivalent-sized pumps in South America and Australia. The Warman MCR 760 pump was developed to meet the demand for mill circuit pumps that can handle unprecedentedly high flow rates, minimising the number of operating lines in a plant, and addressing the global trend of declining ore grades that require increased throughput for economical mineral recovery. The Warman MCR 760 pump is designed to maximise wear life in arduous mill duties and facilitate easy and safe maintenance, regardless of an operator’s maintenance schedule or approach.</p> <p>In addition, Weir will supply Cavex 800CVX and 650CVX hydrocyclones for the MLE Project. HVC, with their experience operating Cavex hydrocyclones, has chosen this trusted solution for its consistently high classification efficiency, capacity and low maintenance requirements.</p> <p>The MLE project will be fully supported by the local Weir service center in Kamloops, British Columbia, ensuring that mission-critical equipment at the HVC mine operates efficiently. The proximity of this service center means that any maintenance or support needs can be addressed promptly, minimising downtime and helping the mine maintain its targets. This local presence is crucial for the mine’s operations, providing reliable access to necessary parts and expert service.</p> </p> </span> </div> <p> </p> <style> /* Slideshow container */ .slideshow-RightColumn { } /* Hide the images by default */ .mySlidesRightColumn1 { display: none; } /* Hide the images by default */ .mySlidesRightColumn2 { display: none; } /* Hide the images by default */ .mySlidesRightColumn3 { display: none; } </style> <div class="slideshow-RightColumn" style="background-color:#FFFFFF; border-top:20px solid white; border-right:10px solid white;"> <center> </center> </div> <script> var slideRightColumn1Index = 0; showSlidesRightColumn1(); function showSlidesRightColumn1() { var i; var slidesRightColumn1 = document.getElementsByName("mySlidesRightColumn1"); for (i = 0; i < slidesRightColumn1.length; i++) { slidesRightColumn1[i].style.display = "none"; } slideRightColumn1Index++; if (slideRightColumn1Index > slidesRightColumn1.length) {slideRightColumn1Index = 1} slidesRightColumn1[slideRightColumn1Index-1].style.display = "block"; setTimeout(showSlidesRightColumn1, 15000); // Change image every 15 seconds } var slideRightColumn2Index = 0; showSlidesRightColumn2(); function showSlidesRightColumn2() { var i; var slidesRightColumn2 = document.getElementsByName("mySlidesRightColumn2"); for (i = 0; i < slidesRightColumn2.length; i++) { slidesRightColumn2[i].style.display = "none"; } slideRightColumn2Index++; if (slideRightColumn2Index > slidesRightColumn2.length) {slideRightColumn2Index = 1} slidesRightColumn2[slideRightColumn2Index-1].style.display = "block"; setTimeout(showSlidesRightColumn2, 15000); // Change image every 15 seconds } var slideRightColumn3Index = 0; showSlidesRightColumn3(); function showSlidesRightColumn3() { var i; var slidesRightColumn3 = document.getElementsByName("mySlidesRightColumn3"); for (i = 0; i < slidesRightColumn3.length; i++) { slidesRightColumn3[i].style.display = "none"; } slideRightColumn3Index++; if (slideRightColumn3Index > slidesRightColumn3.length) {slideRightColumn3Index = 1} slidesRightColumn3[slideRightColumn3Index-1].style.display = "block"; setTimeout(showSlidesRightColumn3, 15000); // Change image every 15 seconds } </script> <div style="text-align:left; width:640px; padding-left:70px; padding-right:30px; font-size:100%;"> Related article search: <br> <div style="padding-top:10px; padding-left:0px; padding-bottom:20px;"> <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord=Weir&submit=1"> Weir </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= The Weir Group PLC&submit=1"> The Weir Group PLC </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= Highland Valley Copper&submit=1"> Highland Valley Copper </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= HVC&submit=1"> HVC </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= Mine Life Extension&submit=1"> Mine Life Extension </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= MLE&submit=1"> MLE </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= Canada&submit=1"> Canada </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= Teck&submit=1"> Teck </a>     <a href="featureFinder.cfm?articleKeyWord= Warman MCR 760 Pump&submit=1"> Warman MCR 760 Pump </a>     </div> </div>  </div> </div> </div> <footer class="black-wrapper"> <div class="container inner"> <div class="divide30"> </div> <div class="row"> <section class="col-sm-3 widget"> <h3 class="section-title widget-title"> About </h3> <p> ©2021 SME All Rights Reserved.
