With XR3's hydraulic mining solutions, you can unlock the full potential of your tailings while minimising operational risks.
What sets our hydraulic mining service apart is its safety and convenience.
Our systems can be operated remotely using a simple tablet interface, ensuring the safety of operators while maximising efficiency.
Turnkey project development services from scoping to detailed design. Our services further extend to the supply of specialised hydraulic mining equipment, mobilisation and establishment including the commissioning and operation for the duration of the tailings reserves.
Our strong partnerships with processing specialists enable the design and operation of complete end-to-end mining and processing solutions.
Hybrid solutions incorporating conventional load and haul can be provided where appropriate.
Track-mounted, remote operated water cannons project a high pressure jet of water to the target material in planned sections.
The resulting slurry gravity feeds to a collection sump for pumping to a nearby booster station and onwards for re-processing.
The water cannons can be operated in a duty-standby arrangement to minimise lost time during cannon services and relocations.
Hard barricades are installed to prevent access to the water jet during operation. Cannons are operated by remote control to remove operators from the high pressure energy source.
High production rate minimises unit cost – a single water cannon is able to mine from 50 to 500t/h depending on the application.
