Abstract

Details of the laboratory testing design and operation of a 150 mm diameter slurry pipeline to transport up to 200 tonnes per hour of manganese ore tailings at Groote Eylandt are presented. The system has operated with availability in excess of 95 percent and has resulted in significant cost savings compared to the original system of trucking.
