Metso has been awarded an order to supply the Metso Loesche VRM dry grinding technology and associated auxiliary equipment to First Majestic Silver Corp for its Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine restart project in Nevada, USA.
The order represents an important milestone in bringing the innovative Metso Loesche VRM technology to the mining industry and supporting customers with a more energy-efficient comminution solution, Metso said.
The value of the order is approximately ¢9 million ($9.9 million).
The order will be delivered in partnership with Loesche and includes a Metso Loesche VRM, baghouse filter, fan, hot gas generator and associated auxiliary equipment. Metso will also provide engineering support to ensure the safe and reliable implementation of the solution. The VRM will be used to grind material feeding the site’s existing roaster circuit.
Bjorn Nielsen, Vice President, HPGR and Dry Grinding at Metso, said: “This order marks a significant step in combining nearly 100 years of vertical roller mill expertise from Loesche with Metso’s extensive mineral processing know-how and service capabilities. The Metso Loesche VRM technology delivers industry-leading energy efficiency with a compact footprint that can be seamlessly integrated into existing processing plants. We are proud to be part of the next chapter of Jerritt Canyon’s development. We look forward to building a long and successful relationship with First Majestic, supporting the restart and future success of the operation.”
Stefan Baaken, Managing Director of Loesche Australia, added: “The Metso Loesche VRM is the ideal technical solution for this dry grinding project. Its outstanding energy efficiency, combined with superior drying performance, provides a clear advantage over competing technologies. Furthermore, its compact footprint makes the VRM grinding system an excellent fit for this brownfield project.”
In April, First Majestic announced that it had commenced a restart plan for Jerritt Canyon following the publication of a new expanded resource base combined with strengthened long-term gold price assumptions and successful drilling results over the past two years. A prefeasibility level study detailing the plan is expected by the end of the year, ahead of production commencing in the second half of 2027.
Introduced earlier this year, the Metso Loesche VRM combines the strengths of two industry leaders to offer mining customers a transformative dry grinding solution, the companies say. The technology is designed to reduce energy consumption while maintaining high grinding efficiency and operational reliability, helping customers meet their productivity and sustainability targets.
