Debswana to proceed with Jwaneng tailings project

Debswana Diamond Company is to go ahead with the Jwaneng modular Tailings treatment project which will be carried out by Firestone Diamonds who will "build, own and operate" the facility on behalf of Debswana.

The project was awarded to an ADP / Firestone partnership in 2008 after a formal tender process. However, implementation post award was delayed due to the global economic recession. The tailings, at the world's richest diamond mine are estimated at over 30 million tons.

A statement from Debswana says that the modular tailings treatment project is critical for the company, as it will provide an opportunity to determine whether or not the modular concept can be used for other tailings resources within the company.
