Logistics Plan for Mining, Processing, and Exporting Celestine Ore

1. Overview

This plan outlines the logistical procedures for Havi Group extracting celestine ore from multiple mines, processing the material through a crushing plant, and exporting the enriched and graded minerals.

2. Process Overview

Extraction:
- - Celestine ore is extracted through drilling and blasting techniques.
Loading:
- - Extracted ore is loaded onto heavy-duty haul trucks using loaders or excavators.
Transport to Crushing Plant:
- - Ore is transported from the mines to the processing plant for size reduction and grading.
Processing:
- - Ore is crushed, washed, and separated to achieve the desired size and purity.
  - Grading is conducted to classify the ore into export-quality categories.
Storage:
- - Processed ore is stored in designated stockpiles.
Export:
- - The graded ore is packed, loaded onto trucks, and transported to the export terminal for shipping.

3. Detailed Logistics Procedure

3.1 Extraction and Loading

Equipment: Excavators, loaders, and haul trucks.
Procedure:
- Conduct pre-blast surveys and safety checks.
- Drill and blast the celestine ore body.
- Clear debris and load ore onto haul trucks using loaders or hydraulic excavators.

Ensure proper documentation of extracted volumes and grades

3.2 Transport to Crushing Plant

Fleet: Haul trucks with a payload capacity of 30–50 tons.
Route: Construct or maintain a road network between mines and the processing plant.
Procedure:
- Verify ore volumes at mine exit points.
- Transport ore while adhering to safety and environmental regulations.
- Track vehicles using GPS for route optimization and monitoring.

3.3 Processing at Crushing Plant

Stages:
- – Primary Crushing: Reduce ore size to <200 mm.
- – Secondary Crushing: Achieve final size of 2 mm.
- – Washing & Separation: Remove impurities like clay and silt.
- – Grading: Classify ore based on purity and size.
Equipment: Jaw crusher, cone crusher, hammer mill, rotary washing system, jiggers, and vibrating screens.
Procedure:
- – Process ore in batches based on grade and purity requirements.
- – Quality control checks to ensure export standards.

3.4 Storage and Handling

Stockpiles: Designated areas for different grades.
Procedure:
- Place graded ore into labeled stockpiles.
- Cover stockpiles to protect against weather conditions.
- Regularly update inventory records.

3.5 Export Procedures

Loading and Transportation to Port:
- – Use bulk transport trucks with a 20–40-ton capacity.
- – Ensure compliance with weight limits and road regulations.
Port Handling:
- – Transfer ore from trucks to storage silos or containers.
- – Perform final quality and weight checks.
Shipping:
- – Load ore onto bulk cargo ships using cranes or conveyors.
- – Secure shipping documentation, including certificates of origin and quality analysis reports.

4. Key Considerations

4.1 Environmental Compliance

- – Implement dust control measures during transport and processing.
- – Manage water usage in washing systems and treat wastewater.

4.2 Operational Efficiency

- – Use GPS tracking and inventory management software.
- – Schedule transport and processing to minimize downtime.

4.3 Safety Protocols

- – Train staff in equipment operation and safety standards.
- – Conduct regular maintenance of transport and processing equipment.

4.4 Cost Optimization

- – Use bulk transportation for large volumes.
- – Partner with shipping companies to negotiate competitive freight rates.
