Metso Outotec has been awarded a contract to supply grinding equipment for ArcelorMittal's Las Truchas 2.3MTPA iron ore processing plant revamp project in Mexico.
According to the company, the order includes two Metso Outotec Premier grinding mills with a total installed power of 19MW.
Additionally, Metso Outotec will deliver an in-house Mill Reline Machine, which will enable "efficient, safe replacement of the steel and rubber lining systems," an "operations friendly" Select Ball Feeder and spare parts.
Andy Lingenfelter, vice president of minerals sales, North and Central America at Metso Outotec, said the company is supported by its "strong local service and consumables presence" in Mexico.
"With our Planet Positive Premier grinding mills and associated life cycle service offerings, our customer will be able to expand their iron ore production in a safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible way in partnership with us," Lingenfelter said.
