Robex: The Nampala Mine Generates Positive Net Cash Flows

19.09.2016 | 15:10 Uhr | Marketwired

QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Sep 19, 2016) - The Company Robex Resources Inc. ("Robex" and / or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:RBX)(FRANKFURT:RB4) is pleased to announce that preproduction at the Nampala mine, is currently in a period of increasing production rates (ramp-up), now allows the Nampala mine to generate positive cash flow for the first time in its history. Currently, the production level is around 3,000 tonnes per day (tpd) and is very satisfying only a month and a half after the startup of the permanent 750 kW ball mill.

Since mid-July 2016, the ball mill has started and the mine is in a commissioning period in order to gradually bring production to the final target of 4,000 tpd at the beginning of 2017. In early August, the last two additional CIL tanks were also added to the circuit to bring the total to six tanks.

The table below summarizes the daily tonnage averaged per week since the start of the 750 kW ball mill. This illustrates the steady increase of the preproduction at the mine.

Period Total tonnage for the period Average daily tonnage
July 12 to 18 11,225 1,604
July 19 to 25 11,888 1,698
July 26 to August 1 13,635 1,948
August 2 to 8 17,540 2,506
August 9 to 15 18,684 2,669
August 16 to 22 18,452 2,636
August 23 to 29 * 6,818 2,727
August 30 to September 5 21,798 3,114
September 6 to 12 ** 20,058 2,865
August 31 to September 12 39,002 3,000

* The mine came to a complete stop for four and a half days during the week of August 23, 2016 to perform a correction on the alignment of the drive system of the ball mill.

** The mine went through a planned shutdown for a half-day for maintenance during the week of September 6, 2016. Without this shutdown, the period would have had a daily average tonnage of 3,086 tonnes.

The equipment availability is at this stage particularly satisfactory in the commissioning, it has reached an availability rate of 88% since the beginning of September. The recovery, as well, with a rate of 81% in August and 84% in September was satisfactory in regards to the target rate of 86%.

The tonnage is currently limited by several factors. A first factor is the hard laterite ore that was strongly present at the start of operations at the mine. This ore is expected to be exhausted or in low proportion by the end of 2016. Of course, as in any ramp-up, different points of varying complexities arise and are solved one by one, for example: the tank overflow, the water availability, moving trucks during the rainy season, the deficient pumping, etc.

Even if the plant is currently operational, there are still certain elements to improve. The gravimetrical sectors, reagents and coal processing are not yet operational. Completing these elements in the coming months will increase productivity and optimize recovery. Moreover, the company plans to soon install a complete fire assay laboratory on site.

Mr. Georges Cohen, president and CEO of the company said: "Although the construction of the mine has taken longer than expected, I am very excited at this stage, reaching in September the production target of close to 3,000 tonnes per day that we had set for 2016. This demonstrates without a doubt that the Nampala mine has all the expertise required to rapidly bring the production to 4,000 tonnes per day."

Data were validated by Antoine Berton Eng, Ph.D., Soutex metallurgist, a metallurgical consulting firm and who treat the ore on site.
