Nagpur: Lloyds Metals and Energy Limited (LMEL) made its 10 million tonne capacity pipeline that would transport iron ore in slurry form for a distanc.

The ore will be upgraded into a high-grade pellet feed using conventional gravity and flotation concentration methods before being pumped to the port through a slurry pipeline.

The PFS, produced by Xstrata ( LON:XTA ), assessed the potential of transporting an iron ore charged slurry along a 380 kilometre pipeline to the port of Pointe Noire.

A second slurry pipeline will be constructed to transport the ore to port where the port facilities will be expanded as part of the proposed deepwater port development.

A 366 km slurry pipeline would transport the material to port, from where the product would be exported to the global sea-borne iron-ore market.
