Madneuli mining and processing facility

The Madneuli mining and processing operation is located in Georgia in the Kvemo Kartli region of the Bolnisi District.  We acquired the assets in 2005 during part of the Georgian privatisation programme.  Copper gold-bearing ore is processed using a flotation process at the on-site beneficiation plant.
