The order value of approximately EUR 55 million has been booked in Minerals segment’s 2025 third-quarter orders received.

“We are extremely proud to have been chosen by Harmony. From initial sample testwork at our Perth Technology Centre to optimizing the equipment selection, it’s been a pleasure to collaborate with Harmony on this project. Even more exciting is the long-term partnership to ensure successful equipment delivery and lowest total cost of ownership during operations.” said Kai Rönnberg, Vice President, Minerals, Asia Pacific.

Metso equipment delivery includes a gearless Premier™ SAG mill with 24MW of installed power and a Premier™ twin pinion ball mill with 18MW of power, both ordered with mill linings and spares. For pebble crushing, Harmony has selected two MP800 cone crushers, known for their industry-leading performance and reliability in this arduous duty. The Eva Copper flotation circuit will consist of 15 Metso TankCell® flotation cells and a Vertimill® VTM3000. A Metso Courier® 6X SL slurry analyzer will provide real time assaying of copper and other elements in the slurry. A Metso PSI 500i Particle Size Analyzer coupled with Metso MillSense™ will enable fast on-line analysis of grinding performance.

Harmony (harmony.co.za) has also selected 20m concentrate and 65m tailings thickeners, equipped with Metso’s Reactorwell™ for reduced flocculant usage and improved water recovery. Finally, a single, fully automated Metso Larox® PF filter will ensure dry, consistent, and homogenous concentrate product is produced.

The majority of the equipment to be supplied is part of the Metso Plus.

“In addition to the equipment delivery, Metso and Harmony have agreed a term sheet for a multi-year major goods support agreement. This will ensure smooth commissioning and ramp-up of the Eva Copper concentrator plant. Local service support will be delivered both on site and through Metso’s Australian service centers and spare parts facilities, ensuring fast response times and operational continuity throughout the project lifecycle,” explained Kai Rönnberg.
