Safety,
I have it,on fairly good authority, that the maximum load capacity for a road haulage tipper truck is 32t. This is for a 48t gross weight, 16 wheel vehicle.
Q3 saw 168t WO3 concentrate produced from 289Kt ROM at La Parrilla, which equates to 1,667t ore for each tonne of concentrate.
Regua ore is expected to bear three times the amount of WO3 to La Parilla, so we can expect 1t of concentrate from 555t of ore.
That would take 18 trucks delivering on a 1200km round trip, plus tolls, to include in the AISC of one ton of the shipped product.
Do you see this as feasible or will Regua have to partially process their ore on site before the logistics of shipping to La Parilla become a reality?
