200 TPH Lithium Ore Crushing Plant in Nigeria

Client Profile

• Location: Kaduna, Nigeria
• Industry: Mining & Mineral Processing
• Material: Lithium Ore (Mohs hardness: 6-7)
• Required Capacity: 200 tons per hour
• Final Product: 0-5mm, 5-10mm, 10-20mm for further beneficiation

Project Overview

The client, a major mining company in Nigeria, needed a reliable lithium ore crushing plant to process 200 tons per hour of raw lithium ore into fine-sized aggregates for downstream processing. The challenge was to design a robust production line that could handle the hardness of lithium ore while maintaining high efficiency and minimal downtime.

Challenges

1. Hard Material Properties: Lithium ore is abrasive and requires heavy-duty crushing equipment.
2. High Production Demand: A stable 200TPH output was necessary with consistent particle size.
3. Dust & Pollution Control: Environmental compliance was crucial for the local regulations.
4. Quick Installation & Low Maintenance: The client needed minimal operational downtime.
