Company Announcement to the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority No.
36-2012, 8 November 2012
FLSmidth has won a contract worth approximately USD 63m (approximately DKK
369m) from the Kazakhstani company, Kazakhmys PLC, to design a copper
concentrator and supply all the process technology for a plant to be built at
their Bozshakol copper mine in Kazakhstan, 220 km north of the capital Astana.
The order includes the basic and detailed engineering for the plant in addition
to the supply of FLSmidth's proprietary technologies for crushing, milling,
flotation, thickening, filtering, cycloning, pumping as well as regrind mills
and material handling conveyors and feeders. FLSmidth will also procure
auxiliary 3rd party items for the plant on behalf of Kazakhmys and provide
erection supervision, start-up and commissioning services.
The copper concentrator will have a capacity of 5 million tonnes of ore per
year.
"This order was awarded to FLSmidth as a consequence of our One Source approach
which secures faster start-up, efficient operation and reduced environmental
impact. FLSmidth has previously delivered equipment to Kazakhmys PLC which as
the world's eleventh largest copper producer is a very well established player
in the industry," Group CEO Jørgen Huno Rasmussen comments.
The order will contribute beneficially to FLSmidth's earnings until late 2014.
