Abstract

The Metso VPA filter is used for dewatering and drying of mineral concentrates and tailings. Design specifications of the filter are given along with discussion of its use for tailings dewatering at the Greens Creek sulphide ore plant in Alaska (USA), the El Sauzal gold mine in Mexico, and the Marlin gold mine in Guatemala, and dewatering of the concentrate at the Raglan nickel plant in Quebec (Canada) and the Whitesville coal plant in West Virginia (USA).<br />6 refs.<br />The Metso VPA filter is used for dewatering and drying of mineral concentrates and tailings.
