Outotec has been awarded a contract by Southern Copper Corporation, a subsidiary of Grupo Mexico S.A.B de CV. ("Grupo Mexico"), for the delivery of concentrate filtration plant to the Toquepala concentrator expansion in Southern Peru.
The contract value exceeds EUR 15 million and it has been booked in Outotec's 2017 first quarter order intake.
Outotec's scope of delivery includes the engineering and supply of a filtration plant consisting of automatic pressure filters, ancillaries and control as well as related installation supervision and commissioning services including spare parts.

"We are pleased to have been given the opportunity to deliver the filtration plant to the expansion project of the Toquepala copper operations. Our comprehensive portfolio of dewatering equipment enables us to tailor efficient and environmentally sound solutions and services for copper concentrate processing", says Kimmo Kontola, head of Outotec's Minerals Processing Business Unit.
