Lomas Bayas

Jun 16, 2020
 
Lomas Bayas is an open pit copper mine in the Atacama Desert. It currently produces approximately 75,000 metric tons of copper per year. Owned and operated by Glencore, this mine’s low grade copper ore is processed by heap leaching and converted to copper cathode after processing.
 
In 2008, the mine purchased 9,800 ft of ENDURAPLY 600 PIW 3-Ply and 2,600 ft of 500 PIW 3-Ply belting.
 
ENDURAPLY is designed for the heaviest mining applications. A polyester-nylon Crowfoot weave belt with high strength double cord weft ensures unequaled impact, puncture and rip protection in textile belting. The heaviest warp and weft strength in the industry assures low stretch and trouble-free reliability, and specially compounded high quality rubber skims provide superior shock absorption and high adhesive strength.
