Building an ore mining and processing plant is straightforward, but mine operation and management is quite another story. An operation team with solid process expertise and strong emergency response capabilities is the economic lifeline of any mining enterprise—it ensures the plant runs smoothly, meets production standards, and achieves its designed capacity.
Founded in 1997, Xinhai Mining boasts nearly 30 years of industry experience. We have delivered over 600 EPC mineral processing plants, witnessed countless enterprises suffer losses due to poor operation, and helped many turn things around by providing professional operation and management services that steered them back to profitability and stability. Below are several of our operation cases, which we hope will offer valuable insights for you.
In 2025, we took on 15 operations and management projects. From Jiangxi, Hebei, to Hainan across China, we brought professional, reliable, and cost-effective support to our clients. Beyond China’s borders, we took Chinese technology to Guinea in West Africa and Kazakhstan in Central Asia, helping international clients manage their projects and secure profits. Here are some typical cases worth highlighting.
This is our longest-running overseas mineral processing project. In 2025 alone, it processed a total of 850,000 tons of ore and produced 35.8 kilograms of gold. Today, most on-site operators are from the client’s team, while we have deployed around 10 core mechanical maintenance technicians to ensure uninterrupted equipment performance. The project is set to wrap up successfully in August 2026.
This is a mining operation project. In 2025, 134,000 tons of ore were transported off-site, with the actual mining volume exceeding 210,000 tons when stockpiles are included. Deep mining will kick off in 2026, with an estimated annual output of 200,000 to 300,000 tons. At the peak of production, 80 to 90 on-site personnel will be needed. All ore reserves are expected to be fully extracted, and mining operations concluded, by June 2027.
The project adopts a typical fixed-unit-price contracting model, with pricing based on per-ton of ore, ensuring controllable costs and efficient management.
This is an integrated EPC+O (Engineering, Procurement, Construction + Operation) project, currently in the infrastructure phase. The ramp advances 160 to 180 meters every month, and the ventilation shaft and auxiliary shaft are scheduled to reach the mine bottom by the end of 2026. While formal operation has not yet begun, our team has already been deployed on-site to familiarize itself with the geological conditions.
Backed by nearly 30 years of mining construction experience, Xinhai’s project team has assembled a well-structured, professionally equipped technical and management team to ensure the project progresses smoothly.
The project is progressing at full speed and is scheduled to complete equipment installation by the end of March 2026. Built on the mutual trust established through previous cooperation, the client fully recognizes our professional capabilities and has initially confirmed that we will undertake the follow-up operation services.
In 2025, as prices of gold, copper, tungsten, and other metals continued to rise, mining investment became a hot topic. Xinhai Mining has invested in 8 overseas mines, among which the 500 t/d Reed Gold Mine in Zimbabwe is advancing the fastest.
In 2025, we completed all civil works for the CIP plant, officially launched equipment installation on December 1, and advanced the tailings storage facility project in parallel. Completion is expected in April 2026.
What makes this project unique is that Xinhai serves as the investor, constructor, and future operator all in one. The open-pit mine is already in production, with 20.1 kilograms of gold recovered through heap leaching in 2025. The underground mine is expected to complete infrastructure construction between June and July 2026; after that, run-of-mine ore will be fed directly into our own processing plant, with a full 10-year service life.
In addition to the Zimbabwe gold mine, we have also invested in copper mines in Kazakhstan, niobium and rare earth mines in Brazil, graphite mines in Tanzania, and gold-copper mines in the Caribbean. These 8 investment projects have given us a deeper understanding of the entire mine life cycle.
Only by being an owner ourselves can we truly grasp what owners care about most—cost control, meeting production targets, safety, and compliance—none of which can be compromised.
With nearly 30 years of development, Xinhai Mining has built a robust talent pool covering all core mining disciplines: mining, ventilation, electromechanical engineering, geology, and surveying. Many of our technical staff have over 30 years of on-site experience, and all project managers are seasoned professionals with a proven track record in project delivery.
Overseas projects often come with tough challenges, such as language barriers, material shortages, and political instability. Many of our business managers have worked on-site for extended periods—they understand local customs, know how to engage with local communities, are familiar with local climates (helping clients speed up construction before the rainy season), and master local policies, enabling smooth communication with relevant authorities.
We take safety very seriously. Through annual "Safety Month" campaigns, special scheduling, hidden hazard inspections, and timely reviews, we have kept our Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) below industry standards.
Mining is a high-risk industry—avoiding accidents is equivalent to making profits. After decades of working in this sector, we deeply understand the truth of this statement.
We maintain flexible and data-driven technical control. Supported by comprehensive test data, we adjust process parameters promptly when ore properties change. On-site testing and technical support from our headquarters work in tandem to ensure that mineral processing efficiency meets design requirements. Many contracts include clauses for penalties or termination if performance standards are not met, yet we have never failed to live up to our commitments in this regard.
We are meticulous when it comes to cost control. Advanced technologies help improve recovery rates and production efficiency, reducing unit operating costs to a reasonable range. Many clients, after reviewing their financial reports and seeing that the input-output ratio meets their expectations, choose to cooperate with us again for subsequent projects.
Xinhai Mining undertakes domestic and international mining and mineral processing operation projects, with capacities ranging from several hundred tons to tens of thousands of tons per day. We handle all common metallic and non-metallic ores, with processes including flotation, carbon-in-leach (CIL), magnetic separation, heap leaching, and more.
No matter how well-constructed a processing plant is, poor follow-up operation and management will extend the investment payback period and cause financial losses. It is therefore crucial to partner with a technically proficient, talent-rich operations team to manage your project.
If you have a project that requires professional operation, please feel free to contact Xinhai. We will help your mine increase concentrate output, reduce accidents, and achieve its designed capacity on schedule.
