Outotec to deliver minerals processing technology to Norilsk Nickel in Russia

Outotec has signed a contract with Norilsk Nickel for the delivery of minerals processing technology and equipment to the Bystrinskoe copper concentrator in the Chita Region in Russia. The parties do not disclose the contract price, but the value of comparable deliveries is typically EUR 40-60 million. The order has been booked in Outotec's third quarter 2014 order intake.

Outotec's scope of delivery includes main process equipment for crushing and grinding complex as well as commissioning services and spare parts for two years. Deliveries are scheduled to be completed in mid-2015. Once fully operational in 2017 the Bystrinskoe concentrator complex will process annually over 10 million tonnes of ore.

"Outotec and Norilsk Nickel have established a trusted partnership over the decades by completing a number of projects together. It is delightful that our technological innovations have proved their performance at the existing Norilsk Nickel operations and we can again serve as a partner in implementing modern technology for reduced processing costs and higher efficiency", notes Peter Weber, President of EMEA region at Outotec.
