Leach pad stacking and reclaiming system, Gaby
The application of Mobile Stacking Bridges (MSB) is not restricted to operate on ON-OFF heap leach systems. The biggest advantage of the crawler mounted mobile stacking bridge is the continuous operation without interruptions (downtimes) to shift or relocate. MSBs are designed with a minimized number of bridge segments with the advantages of:
- less crawler units, less maintenance, less complex equipment control (leveling)
- reduced operating expenses
- more reliable structural design according to fatigue loads (bolted instead of welded)
A retractable tripper stacker conveyor allows dumping on both sides of the bridge (low and high cast operation).
