Karachipampa Lead/Silver Smelter Project -

http://www.atlaspreciousmetals.com/project_01.php

The Karachipampa Lead/Silver Smelter is located in Potosi, Bolivia. It was constructed during the period 1985 thru 1988 by Corporacion Minera de Bolivia (COMIBOL) and was never fired due to a lack of lead concentrate production in Bolivia. A total of $180 million have been expended on the facility to date by COMIBOL. The plant has been on care and maintenance since completion and is in ‘new condition’. It was designed and constructed by Klockner, a German engineering and construction firm, with design based on state-of-the-art Russian Kivcet technology. This technology is in common use around the world with two of the most important users being the Cominco Trail Smelter in British Columbia and the Glencore Porto Vesme Smelter on the island of Sardenia, Italy.

God Bless
