The concentrator belongs to the Boliden area together with three mines and plays a central role in extracting and producing metals. The ore from the mines comes to us to be refined into concentrates that can be sold to our customers, the smelters. Here, the ore undergoes a number of different processing steps, including grinding, flotation and leaching of precious metals. An important part of our business is also the maintenance of our sand reservoir and the treatment of process water before it is released into the environment.
