VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 17, 2025 /CNW/ - BQE Water Inc. (TSXV: BQE), a leader in the treatment and management of mine impacted waters, has advanced the SART plant it designed for Shandong Gold, the largest gold producer in the country, to full production. Following the successful commissioning by the BQE China team, BQE will provide operation support services for an initial term of five years to ensure the plant meets its performance targets, including metal production, cyanide recovery and reduction in sulphate concentrations from the prior buildup.
Similar to the other two SART plants in China, where BQE Water has been providing ongoing operation support services since 2022, this newest SART plant also recovers and recycles cyanide in the gold leaching process while recovering copper and zinc in high grade metal concentrates. What makes this third plant different is the fact that it replaces an existing Acidification-Volatilization-Recovery (AVR) plant that has higher operating costs while creating a build-up of sodium sulphate that interferes with the metallurgical process.
