The document summarizes operations and production statistics from the Legadembi Gold Processing Plant in Ethiopia. It states that over 28 million tonnes of ore were crushed and milled, producing a total of 74,043 kg of gold, with average gold fineness of 78% and silver fineness of 21%. Gold recovery rates were 94.6% for Midroc ore and 89% for government ore. The plant's major circuits include crushing, grinding, leaching, carbon-in-pulp adsorption, electrowinning and smelting. Key reagents used are sodium cyanide, sodium hydroxide and lime. Utilities include process water, compressed air, and electricity from the national grid and diesel generators.
