Classic water win

GOLD mine developer Classic Minerals’ application for the water pipeline pathway from the bore to the plant site at its Kat Gap project in Western Australia’s Eastern Goldfields has been approved.

This is a crucial win for the company because the water from that pipeline is a vital ingredient for Classic's gold processing plant.

The water bore is located adjacent to Kat Gap's main haul road 1100m from the processing plant.

That will make pumping the water to the processing plant relatively simple.

There should be limited infrastructure required because the pipeline will be placed above ground.

Under water licence GWL207298(2) Classic is allowed to take up to 100 megalitres of water annually from the bore.
