FLSmidth & Co. A/S has received an order to supply comminution technologies to a leading copper miner in South America for their new, greenfield concentrator. The order is valued at approximately DKK 380 million and was booked in First Quarter 2024.

The equipment is due to be delivered during 2025. The order includes the delivery of two Ball mills and three High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR). The latter is well known to be among the most energy-efficient comminution technologies, as it lowers power consumption, while providing a more stable grinding operation and eliminating the need for grinding media.

This new order builds on a long-standing relationship with the customer, where FLSmidth has supplied most of the equipment for their original concentrator as well as provided maintenance, spare parts and process support services over the years.
