Superior Industries Mobile Heap Leach Conveying System
Superior designs its heap leach conveying systems in a custom, comprehensive manner around the requirements of each operation.
At the core of Superior's system is the mine-duty TeleStacker® Conveyor, which is engineered with an internal stinger conveyor that maintains constant motion along a cell, distributing material evenly to achieve a flat top to each heaped pile, while also piling more material per move. The horizontal index conveyor, a feed conveyor and multiple grasshopper conveyors are integrated into the system to ensure that a smooth flow of material is fed to the TeleStacker® Conveyor.
Each conveyor is engineered with mobility in mind, and Superior takes a total systems approach that accounts for the specific requirements of the operation.
The tail of this stacking conveyor mounts to the framework of the HIC [Horizontal Index Conveyor] and radially pivots around this point. The unit’s stinger conveyor telescopes an additional 30 to 70-ft (9.1 – 21.3m). This allows the stacker to pile more tons per move and creates flat top piles, which reduces reliance on dozers to prep the heap for irrigation.
