Guinea Crushers and Screening Plant for Guinea Bauxite Mining

The largest single producer of bauxite (aluminium ore) in the world, Cie des Bauxites de Guinée's (CBG) operations are located in the west of Guinea, close to the border with Guinea-Bissau. Since opening in 1973, the operations produced over 260Mt of bauxite for export. The operations consist of the Kamsar bauxite treatment plant on the West African coast, and a group of open pit mines located 100km inland, centred on the community of Sangarédi.

After stripping any thin overburden, the bauxite ore is blasted and then loaded using hydraulic excavators into haul trucks for transport to the mine stockpiles. Treatment of the run-of-mine bauxite consists mainly of crushing and drying before shipment. Ore wagons are tipped individually, the material being crushed to –100mm before stockpiling. After reclaim using bucket-wheel stacker-reclaimers, the ore is dried from an average 12.5% moisture to 6.7% for shipping.

For the bauxite crushing, you can consider SBM’s mining crushers which have been widely applied in more than 130 countries. SBM jaw crushers can be used for primary bauxite crushing and SBM cone crusher or impact crusher can be chosen as the secondary bauxite crushing equipment. Aside from single bauxite crushers, SBM can also offer you the complete bauxite crushing screening plant with both stationary and mobile type.
