Newco will design and build a plant to beneficiate 100,000 tpy of Wollastonite ore by a proven flotation process. This will generate 30,000 tpy of wollastonite product with additional high-value byproducts:

• 10,000 tpy of Magnetics
• 35,000 tpy of Diopside concentrates
• 22,000 tpy of Feldspar concentrates
