Appropriate Process Technologies manufactures small to medium-scale mineral processing equipment in-house at its Johannesburg head office. The company specializes in gravity concentration, cyanidation and flotation systems for alluvial, eluvial, hard rock, tailings and combination feed types, recovering gold, chrome, lead, manganese, tin, tantalite and other minerals.
APT supplies modular processing solutions designed to allow miners to start at lower throughput and grow with confidence by adding additional modules. The company offers metallurgical testing to determine optimal recovery processes, such as how much gold is gravity recoverable versus requiring cyanidation. Equipment is often kept in stock for rapid delivery. The company emphasizes manufacturing high quality products in-house to ensure durability and efficiency, and operates a Projects Division capable of delivering solutions up to 100 tph. APT also works with Peacocke and Simpson laboratory in Harare, Zimbabwe for ore amenability testing.
