The Metso VPA 1540-20 filter press which AVB have purchased as a turnkey item has been delivered to site. Assembly and installation has commenced. The press has the capacity to process about 90 tons of concentrate per year. At 30% concentrate that's 27,000 tonnes of copper plus gold. Of course we all know they are only going to produce 12,000 tonnes per year and the excess capacity is designed to make lunch for the work force (tongue firmly in cheek).
