Viridis Mining and Minerals has awarded the first major equipment contract for its Colossus Rare Earth Project in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil.
The company has selected Dewater Filter Press to supply the residue pressure filtration package following a 12-month competitive tender and technical evaluation process.
The contract includes the design, manufacture, fabrication, testing and supply of a filtration system intended to handle solid-liquid separation of processed clay before it is returned to the mine as part of rehabilitation activities.
According to Viridis, Dewater was chosen after dedicated testing using Colossus residue, which established the appropriate equipment sizing and operating parameters.
These tests also underpinned contractual performance guarantees for throughput and final residue moisture levels.
