Mount Isa Mines Copper Smelter Condition Assessments
AEP Elical was engaged to undertake a structural inspection and condition report on the copper smelter crushing plant, a concept design to improve access to the bosh tank and a preliminary inspection of one of the two cooling towers.
AEP Elical deemed that the overall condition of the structure was good with no significant risks identified. ‘Red Dingo’ action sheets were prepared by AEP Elical for all notable defects found.

AEP Elical was engaged to undertake a concept study, followed by detailed design of structural modifications required to provide access for slag removal under the Slag Caster tail end support frame. As part of this project, AEP Elical undertook a structural integrity audit for the TSL Slag Caster Support Structure as well as additional scope in replacement of existing primary beam in the TSL plant and shedder plates to lengthen design life.
