The material with the wolfram ore will be shipped to a test facility in Madrid and will now undergo a series of testwork including classification, crushing, and grinding, followed by a battery of further metallurgical tests, among them shaking table tests, over a four-week period. ”Things are advancing fast at our wolfram project in Galicia,” said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals. He continued: “The collaboration with AMP ensures that we will have access to state-of-the-art processing solutions tailored to our specific ore and operational conditions.”
The test results will form the basis for AMP’s design of a customised, turnkey pilot processing plant for the San Juan project. AMP is expected to deliver its pilot plant proposal in Q4-2025, with a final investment decision anticipated in before the end of the year. The turnkey delivery of the pilot plant is scheduled for Q3-2026. “Sending this material for final testing is not just a technical step – it is part of our broader commitment to responsible project development. Working with AMP allows us to design a pilot plant that is not only efficient but also tailored to minimise environmental impact, in line with our vision for a modern, responsible mining operation in Galicia,” said Agne Ahlenius, Managing Director of Tungsten San Juan.
