CASE STUDY: Packaged Plant Upgrade Supplies Plant upgrades in remote mining environments demand more than simply supplying equipment. Success depends on deep operational understanding, practical engineering experience, careful supplier coordination, and the certainty that every component will arrive ready for installation — first time, every time. For this project, Aranzu was engaged to transform an … Read More
CASE STUDY: Gold Mining Efficiency in Africa Gold mining operations across Africa are often challenged by inefficiencies in material handling, particularly in wet and abrasive environments. In ROM (Run-of-Mine) SAG mill feed systems, uncontrolled water accumulation, material build-up, and maintenance downtime can significantly impact throughput and operational performance. A critical bottleneck exists beneath feed hoppers, … Read More
CASE STUDY: Jet-Pump Fluidizer Technology Across mining operations, one challenge is both universal and notoriously costly: the ongoing build-up of compacted slimes and solids in process-water dams. Over time, these dams accumulate dense layers of sediment on the floor, material that becomes so compacted that conventional pumps can’t move it. As the sludge layer grows, … Read More
CASE STUDY: Knife gate valve seal rings THE PROBLEM: One of our mining clients was facing a recurring and costly issue with their knife gate valves operating in a highly abrasive slurry environment. The standard seal rings within these valves were wearing out prematurely due to the coarse nature of the slurry. This rapid wear … Read More
CASE STUDY: Cast liners The aranzu Casted Liners are suited to all high impact, high abrasion environments, where the existing liner is not achieving the required service life. These liners came about as a result of the previous product which was in use, not meeting the requirement. Aranzu worked with the client to solve the … Read More
