Mine water is essential to plant operations either for separation of metal value or to transport slurries to the tailing impoundments. There are also solvent extraction unit processes that with proper pretreatment, efficiencies can be realized at the electro-winning. As in the case of solvent extraction electro-winning (SXEW) process, efficient crud removal and recovery of organic that can be potentially re-employed into the solvent extraction process to minimize plant operational cost.
