The Greenfield Project developed by students of the tenth semester of the National
University of Engineering, the main element is tin, is based on a scoping study for the
design of a processing plant, which will process 3000 T/d. It has a mineral reserve of
14,000,000 T and assays of 4.20% Sn, 0.15% Cu, 0.49 Oz/T Ag, and a useful life
of 13 years. The process has 4 main stages: crushing, gravimetric concentrate,
flotation concentrate and solid-liquid separation. In the process, a 57.93% of tin grade
gravimetric concentrate and a 51.71% of tin grade flotation concentrate are obtained;
which are mixed to obtain a 56.88% of tin grade concentrate as a final product.

Table 1. Values contained in the mineral.
