Projects

Paulsens - Black Cat Syndicate (ASX: BC8)


Oroya was engaged in 2024 to refurbish and operate the onsite laboratory at Paulsens, located in the Pilbara Region of Western Australia.

 

The project involved a comprehensive refurbishment of the existing lab, including the procurement of new equipment to support a change in the analytical methods used onsite. Oroya managed the full installation and commissioning of the updated equipment, ensuring it met the specific requirements of the operation.

 

The lab was designed to support the mine's gold processing needs, including solid, solution, and carbon assays, moisture determination, and cyclone sizing analysis.

In addition to these services, the lab also assays grade control samples, significantly reducing the turnaround time from three weeks to just a few days, ensuring quicker decision-making for the Client's operations.

Georgetown- Savannah Goldfields (ASX: SVG)

Oroya was engaged in 2022 to design, procure, build, and commission a standalone laboratory at the Georgetown Gold Project in Far North Queensland. The project was completed in just two months, involving the installation of a demountable building, sea containers, and the setup of analytical equipment. Oroya also developed tailored procedures, inductions, and safety systems in compliance with the Client's Safety Management Plan.

The lab was designed to support a 200 ktpa Gravity/CIL plant, providing services such as solid, solution, and carbon assays, moisture determination, and cyclone overflow sizing. It also processed grade control samples, saving the Client the cost of shipping them to Townsville.

Equipped with a refurbished PAL-1000 and new Centrifuge, the lab was capable of processing up to 100 RC grade control samples per day, with capacity for 200 samples when a dedicated technician was assigned. Oroya invoiced the Client on a fixed and variable monthly fee basis, with a four-year contract. The lab was successfully operated by a Supervisor and Technician, with ongoing support from Oroya's management team.
