Fekola Gold Mine – Custom SPI Package for New Processing Plant
In 2016, Lycopodium engaged us to supply a custom Special Piping Items (SPI) package for B2Gold’s new Fekola gold processing plant. The Fekola mine, located in Mali, is the company’s largest.
Our SPI package included mining hose, Victaulic couplings and fittings, industrial hose assemblies, Straub couplings, orifice plates, and slotted pipe for tailings dam spigot droppers. We assembled, tested, and tagged the package in our Perth workshop and delivered everything to site in time for the project to commence.
B2Gold successfully commissioned the plant three months ahead of schedule and on budget.
