en.Wedoany.com Reported - Appian Capital Advisory, an investment advisor to long-term value-oriented private capital funds, has announced the successful commissioning of a water treatment plant at its Rosh Pinah Zinc (RPZ) underground zinc/lead mine in Namibia. Appian acquired RPZ in 2023. The water treatment plant is a key component of the mine's sustainable development strategy and part of its RP2.0 expansion project. The plant recovers and recycles process water, significantly reducing reliance on water from the Orange River.

By recycling process water on a large scale, the water treatment plant reduces RPZ's environmental footprint. This supports the long-term sustainable operation of the mine and surrounding communities that depend on shared water resources. Appian stated that the commissioning of the water treatment plant follows the recent completion of Namibia's first paste backfill plant at RPZ. This marks another operational advancement within the RP2.0 expansion project.

Ignacio Bustamante, Head of Base Metals at Appian, commented: "The commissioning of the water treatment plant is a significant step in fulfilling our environmental commitments as we scale up operations under the RP2.0 project. Responsible water management is critical to our operations and our environmental, social, and governance standards. This milestone demonstrates our dedication to building a sustainable, long-term operation with high standards of environmental stewardship."

The RP2.0 expansion project is now over 90% complete, on schedule and on budget. The project is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
