Used Mining Equipment for Sale: Copper Hits a Ten-month High

Mining equipment for sale: Copper hit a ten-month high on Monday as fresh data suggested the global recession was easing, spurring hopes of a recovery in demand and sending the dollar lower.

Brokerage CLSA's China purchasing managers index rose to a one-year high of 52,8 in July, confirming official PMI data over the weekend that indicated an expansion in manufacturing, while US gross domestic product numbers on Friday showed the world's largest economy shrank by less than expected in the second quarter.

The greenback sank to its lowest point this year against a basket of currencies, making dollar-priced commodities cheaper for holders of other currencies.

"The markets are certainly factoring in economic recovery and that's a key reason why we've had these big gains in commodity prices," said David Moore, commodity strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia.

A New Breed of Mining Equipment

It seems inevitable that unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), which have already risen to prominence in the military sector, will become standard mining equipment in the mining business.

Research in UAVs has been increasing since the last decade. Initially the applications have been focused on the military.

This, however, is changing and the vast benefits of the technology have attracted the attention of industries such as the mining equipment sector which has already begun to reap the rewards.

The primary use of aircraft within the mining industry is for exploration; to map out tracts of distant terrain and to explore for potential mineral deposits. The nature of such missions makes the use of UAVs a natural fit, but that is not the only area of mining operations in which unmanned aircraft excel.

Missions flown by manned fixed-wing aircraft are inherently dangerous because of the necessity of conducting such flights at low altitudes and low air speeds. UAVs only require control from a pilot stationed safely on the ground.

Used Mining Equipment for Sale

Used mining equipment for sale targeted to Uranium One which has two operating mines in Kazakhstan. The Akdala mine, in which the company holds 70%, continues to produce in line with expectations, Uranium One said. The firm also holds 70% of the South Inkai mine, which declared commercial production on January this year and continues to ramp up output as planned.

By the end of the second quarter, 134 of the 343 wells scheduled to be installed this year at South Inkai had been installed, and the operation remains on track to commission the drying circuit by year end.

MSloane Consulting helps mining companies cut operational costs through the purchase of high-performing used mining equipment for sale.

The circuit will help Uranium One cut operational costs, because the company expects Akdala will be also able to use excess drying capacity at South Inkai, which will reduce the need to use third-party processing facilities for drying and calcining.

Mining Equipment: Kilimapesa Gold Mine

Mining Equipment for the Kilimapesa Gold mine project: Situated in the Migori Archaean Greenstone Belt in south-west Kenya, the Kilimapesa Gold mine project is a joint venture between Goldplat and International Gold Exploration. The project came into production in January 2009. MSloane Consulting provides mining equipment for mining companies.

This strategy resulted in increased efficiencies and led to an improvement in the monthly development rate. The end of March 2009 saw the achievement of 70m of mine development. The company is aiming to reach at 100m a month with an expected 500m of vein strike length, and more than 500m of raises being available by the end of 2009.

Goldplat is looking to raise production to 900t per month out of which 750 will be from underground development and the rest from high-grade tailings. It is expected that the average rate will be in excess of 4g/t Au yielding between 4kg (124oz) and 6kg (187oz) Au per month.
