The Nampala project is located approximately 80 km North of the city of Sikasso and 21 km south of the village of Niéna, which is accessible via the Nampala access road.
IMS is the main subcontractor of the Nampala mine since 2013. Our work includes mining and excavation, mineral transportation, earth movement, and mineral stock management.
The NAMPALA mine is a simple concentrator, entirely geared towards process performance. In a very unique way, it strikes a perfect balance between industrial efficiency and operating cost optimization, without compromising on operational safety.
During its second year of production, the plant processed very low-grade saprolite (0.8 g/t) and achieved a record 1,796,000 tonnes, which allowed recovering 44,946 ounces of gold for a cost per ounce of $643/once.
