Leaching: a Solution Adapted to your Ores

Optimize your metal extraction by leveraging proven expertise and unique leaching test capabilities.
    • Identify the most effective leaching processes for each type of ore
    • Select the right reagents to maximize recovery rates
    • Determine optimal operating conditions based on economic, technical, and environmental constraints
    • Secure the profitability of your mining projects from the early stages
    • Test all types of leaching, under dynamic conditions (agitated tanks) or static conditions (heaps, ISR), at pressure or atmospheric pressure (autoclaves), at low to high degres
    • Analyze key performance indicators (recovery rates, reagent consumption, impurity extraction) in our three specialized laboratories
    • Rely on recognized international experience in leaching, including uranium (France, Niger, Canada, Kazakhstan), gold (France), and pilot projects (Namibia)
    • Define your operating parameters with expert support, to maximize productivity and profitability
    • Benefit from technical consulting to guide your process choices early in the investment decision process
