Renison Area 5 ventilation upgrade
Bluestone Mines Tasmania Joint Venture Pty Ltd
Tasmanian Tin Operations - Renison Mine Site
Bluestone Mines Tasmania Joint Venture Pty Ltd’s?Renison Tin Mine is close to completing the first major upgrade of the mine’s ventilation system in over 30 years.
The Area 5 ventilation upgrade project includes the installation of twin 800kW fans, capable of drawing hot air from over 1200m underground.
The fans were transported underground in sections and assembled in a specially excavated chamber.
Once commissioned, the new No.9 ventilation system will draw air to the surface via a network of four newly excavated 5m diameter shafts, reducing the number of booster fans currently in use, improve ventilation system efficiency and working condition in Area 5. #bluestonemines #tin #mining #tasmania
