MONTREAL, Sept. 1 /CNW Telbec/ - Exploration Orbite VSPA Inc. is pleased to announce it has successfully completed the third and final design phase of its pilot project. Initiated at the company's own Cap-Chat plant in the Gaspé region, the project is now entering its implementation phase, the final phase before production. This next phase will mark the arrival and assembly of all required production equipment.
The final design for the pilot was approved on August 27, when members of the Orbite board of directors, management team, and technical team met with engineering consulting firm Seneca to go over the technological advances the process introduces. These advances will boost the productivity and efficiency of the process in question.
"We are obviously thrilled and excited by the technological breakthroughs we have seen. There is no doubt in our minds that Orbite's project holds great promise for the Quebec economy and has a tremendous chance of success," stated engineer Dominique Morin, a project director with Seneca, the engineering consulting firm tasked with carrying out the pilot project.
With the support of the Orbite management team, Mr. Morin also made sure to apply the very latest techniques in hydrometallurgical process management and development required to complete the project.
"We would like to thank Seneca, whose outstanding work enabled us to hit all our targets. We can now build on this to launch the next phase of development with confidence and enthusiasm, and put everything in place for the final phase—production. Clearly, we are happy to confirm that this critical step is right in line with the predetermined schedules," said Exploration Orbite president and CEO Richard Boudreault.
