Outotec has signed a contract with Zambia-based mining company Kansanshi Mining for the design and delivery of a gas cleaning system and a sulfuric acid plant. Kansanshi operates a large copper mine and has selected Outotec to build the world's largest metallurgical sulfuric acid plant downstream of its new copper smelter. The contract is valued at more than �?¬80m. The new gas cleaning and sulfuric acid complex will be part of the overall copper smelting facilities located in Solwezi, North-Western Province, Zambia. The acid plant will process off gas from the copper smelter and the acid produced will be used for leaching nearby at Kansanshi Mining's copper plant. Story provided by StockMarketWire.com
