 
Minerval is located on the "darse n°5"
with direct access to
the quay in the port of Dunkerque. This port
has known a significant development over the last
10 years through the presence of the steel plant
Sollac Atlantique with a production of around 6,5
million tons of steel.
The hinterland
has been underestimated in the past and has a good
growth potential in the future for the development
of new industries.
The tunnel to the UK
from Calais has equally opened new opportunities
just as the potential of outgoing container goods
to Scandinavia, Spain
or the Mediterranean.
Bulk materials supplied by the waterway
can be directly unloaded into Minerval's
premises for storage and further processing.
The container terminal
also allows the supply of smaller quantities or
semi-treated products in big bags.
Minerval can process materials of a size of up to
300mm by a jaw crushing
primary circuit. For spent
products (recycling) a classifying
circuit in combination with a cone crusher
can reduce these materials to below 8mm. Individual
cuts into different grain sizes is a second option
as well as packing into big bags.
The raw material circuit
has the option to either dry
incoming products before classification
into individual grain sizes or crushing in a closed
circuit in a mill
down to finer fractions.
The finished cuts can be extracted from their silos
into bulk bags
or component systems
can be weighed in a big bag upon customers request.
This option allows equally to integrate
a specific secondary raw material in order
to optimise the cost structure of the system. |
Minerval is a service-company
for handling, processing,
and storage of minerals as well as secondary
materials.
On the raw material
side the company is specialized in the treatment
of basic minerals for the production of refractory
products and for the agriculture.
Raw materials and spent
products can be supplied by its customers
by vessel, barge, train or truck for toll processing.
 
Sampling on the
production and finished products is affected according
to customer's requirements and grain size distribution
will be determined in the laboratory
based on which a certificate of analysis will be
established.
The records of
these data allows the SPC and determination of specifications
in agreement with the customers.
As a toll service provider
Minerval adapts its activities to the demand
of its customers to supply products and services
to local and hinterland
markets.
