Inside a Sepro Agglomeration Drum

This is a video inside of Sepro's tire driven agglomeration drums installed prior to a heap leach operation in Mexico. It shows the cascading action characteristic of proper agglomerator operation. The action in the Agglomeration Drum, combined with small additions of cement / lime, binds the fines into a "pelletised" product, which can be heaped and leached out without "pooling" and "channelling" caused by loss of heap permeability due to blinding by fines.
