Sepro Agglomeration Drums are specifically designed to prepare feeds with high fines content on Gold and Base Metal heap loading operations.The action in the Agglomeration Drum, combined with small additions of cement / lime, binds the fines into a "pelletised" product, which can be heaped and leached out without "pooling" and "channelling" caused by loss of heap permeability due to blinding by fines.
