Where corrosion meets control

In Kolwezi, in the heart of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kamoto Copper Company (KCC) stands as a leading producer of copper and cobalt. The name “Kamoto,” drawn from the Swahili word for “small fire,” aptly reflects the company’s role in fuelling modern industry. KCC’s mineral zones sit at the western end of the Congolese Copperbelt — a region renowned for exceptionally rich copper, cobalt, and uranium deposits that are central to the global energy transition. Copper underpins electrification and grid expansion, while cobalt remains a critical component in many battery chemistries powering mobility and energy storage.

Op-Ed: Safeguarding conveyor performance through proactive assessment and maintenance

Conveyor systems are the backbone of efficient materials handling in mining and mineral processing operations.

Undertaking comprehensive conveyor assessments is essential to understanding performance across the entire system and ensuring that conveyors continue to operate reliably. Combined with regular proactive maintenance, these measures safeguard conveyor performance and extend equipment life.

Emerald Resources Taps Metso for Grinding Mills at Australian and Cambodian Gold Projects

Metso has been awarded orders for the delivery of two horizontal grinding mills to Emerald Resources NL for the Dingo Range Gold Project in Western Australia and the Memot Gold Project in Cambodia. The total value of the orders exceeds EUR 10 million and has been booked in the Minerals segment’s 2026 second-quarter orders received. If conveyors stop, production stops, which is why these critical systems cannot be maintained reactively. Comprehensive conveyor assessments provide a clear understanding of how the system is performing, where inefficiencies exist and where risks might be developing.
