Dear Customers and Dealers, Wish you a very Happy New Year!

2011 was a great year for us. The overwhelming success of Metso in the Southeast Asia region was made possible only with your great support and kind patronage. Team Metso thanks you all very much for your contribution and confidence reposed in us.

In our organization, we take commitment very seriously and always look forward to improve it. In the beginning of the year, I told you that our management is serious about investing in this region. The success of 2011, has strengthened our belief that many of the countries in Southeast Asia have equal potential as we see in other big Asian economies like India and China. I am repeating my commitment that we have concrete plans to expand our resources and support organization locally in Southeast Asia region and you would see some positive outcomes in the coming years.

The service business today accounts for over half of Metso’s Mining and Construction Technology group net sales. It indicates clear transformation of our organization from pure product supplier to life–cycle service provider. Our main target is to deliver not only products but solutions and performance as well. Service is mainly about delivering the right service products to the right place at the right time and quickly.

In Southeast Asia region, we have much to do on ”Services” side. We still have many gaps and grey areas and have not been able to tap the full potential of growing our services business vis-a-vis the potential available in the region. To make this happen, we are significantly strengthening our local service organization and resources in the region.

In the western countries, business environment is fast maturing to a point where decisions are now been driven by the lowest life cycle costs rather than lowest initial investment. CAPEX and OPEX are now equally integral to any buying decision and are not delinked, as in the past. In our region, this aspect is still in the infancy stage but I am sure that it is a matter of time when we all start realizing the importance of OPEX in the buying decision, in our region.

I once again thank you all for your valued contribution in our growth and look forward to receiving your valued patronage in the coming years.

Warm Regards

Suhen Agarwal Vice President – Mining and Construction Technology Southeast Asia, Japan and Korea Region

A supreme partnership

A supreme partnership KMASPL Nepal, joins hand with Metso for a quality based development Making a mark in the fast growing infrastructure development space in the country puts forth many demands and challenges. KMASPL Infrastructure is challenging Metso to engage in closer cooperation with itself to share in-depth aggregate processing know-how and to present newer solutions to improve their business.

Kusheshwor Mahadev Aggregate Stone Pvt. Ltd. was registered in 4th Shrawan 2066 B.S (19th July 2009) under the company’s Act 2063, with the main objective to produce different size of natural and crushed aggregate along with sand. KMASPL has made significant inroads in the infrastructure industry in Nepal.

A leader in production of hi- Quality aggregates, KMASPL believes in expansion, collaboration with the best partner, “We not only trust Metso’s machines but also their committed customer service blended with their great corporate values”, says Mr. Raj Bhakta Pradhan, Chairman.

Making the difference What sets KMASPL apart in this journey is a unique model of growing the business. Dedication alone does not drive results, it is the vision of doing things differently that makes the peers stand up and look at KMASPL. Gradually as the demand for aggregate started increasing across the Nepal region and quality became a strict

measure, up gradation of the plant became imperative, “We started small but were quite focused on taking less and finishing it to satisfaction. Our basic premise when we began was to make sure that we ensure quality in whatever we do. The projects with minimal technology were tough to execute but made us learn quite a lot on the changed dynamics of the business. Moving further we entered the road segment, but it was more by chance. We jumped in to the opportunity and that’s where our tryst with larger projects came into being,” said Mr. Suraj Shreshta, Executive Director.

What really built the relationship was the unbending confidence of KMASPL in Metso from one project to another. KMASPL procured Metso’s portable crushing technology for a road project for Hazma corporation, Japan. Extension of roads from Suryabinayak, Bhaktapur to Tinkune, Kathmandu.

“The experience has been phenomenal. smooth operations and excellent service have been the hallmark in this project and has strengthened our belief in Metso’s technology.

Metso will be our preferred partner in future for all our big ventures”, said Mr. Suraj Shreshta.

Customizing solutions In the commercial aggregates market, there is a lot of variation in the requirement of aggregates sizes. The demand for which keeps fluctuating from 10mm to 65 mm, so the aggregate producers have to make sure that they are able to cope up with the ever increasing demand.

The aggregate manufacturers cannot afford to slip on the quality and quantity required for the aggregates.

Keeping the volatility and other market dynamics in mind KMASPL chose 200TPH NW plant consisting of NW 106 and NW 1100. “The plant has outreached our expectations, which helped us in completing the project in the given time. “ said Mr Suraj Shreshta.

The plant was commissioned in December 2009 and has produced 6,50,000 MT in 2 years of operations under stringent climatic and political condition. The objective was to determine the overall viability and feasibility of implementing the proposed project, viability and feasibility as used in the context means the ability of the project to be operated profitability in a harmonized and humanized manner.

Rewriting rules “In the commercial aggregates market, the output specs are extremely critical. We found the portable solutions offered by Metso best suited for our requirements. It was a difficult task for us to conduct the kind of work we had

A successful debut Metso delivers a 3 stage, 175 TPH modular plant to Anant Stone It was almost a silent debut for Metso’s latest offering in modular crushing plants. The success in the opening act had made the industry stand up and look at it, so much so that there are another 14 orders under execution across the country now . The compact and versatile solution from Metso has found a great fit in the industry and Anant Stone takes the lead to be the first in India . Read on to find out what clicked this unique combination of technology and flexibility from Metso.

A successful debut

A step towards accomplishment The project was constructing a highway for PanipatJalandhar, India. The application was for the river gravel and the real need of the customer was to put up a lean structured plant that could fit into the existing circuit and produce wide range of product combination at the same time. Metso Modular installation are designed for just that requirement and are very flexible in nature .

The plant was designed keeping in mind not only the existing structures on site but also the versatility of products required. A 3 Stage crushing plant consisting of C 106 Jaw Crusher, GP 11 F Cone Crusher and B7150 SD Barmac Tertiary Crusher was offered by Metso with a capacity of 175 TPH for aggregate size of 0-40mm. The existing structures were used to support the jaw crusher and the feed hooper, hence reducing civil works cost and avoiding the wastage of an already present civil work.

Looking at the shape and quality of the output required Metso also provided the option of cone feed and screen feed in the same plant. The plant has already crushed over 30000 tons in its first month of operations with a 10 hour daily shift. There are five fractions of products that the plant produces :0-5 mm, 5-10 mm, 10-20mm, 20-40 mm and 40-53 mm “Not only the shape of aggregates is superior but the consistency of its performance has impressed us. we are glad to choose metso as our partner”, said Mr. Rakesh Vohra proprietor, Anant Stone.

High performance guaranteed The solution gives the customers a fast and effective response to their productivity and quality requirements, regardless of whatever material is

The modular plant is much compact than the traditional skid mounted plant and yet gives the space for free movement of utility equipment within the plant area, “Totally bolted structures are an added feature. It will allow us to easily dismantle the equipment into subassemblies and transport and re-assemble effortlessly at a new location when it will be planned to move in future. “ said Mr. Vohra.

An option of PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) was also available that comprised a simple push button design with electrical panels. With the presence of time tested Barmac crushers on board the Modular installations assures an increased production capacity and high quality of products.

A standing ovation The modular installations have got a stupendous response from the market and is already gaining acceptance with the plant owners across India. With applications ranging from the roads aggregates, commercial sand production to ready mix concretes, the modular plant is almost set to create a new niche in aggregate processing in the construction industry.

“Owing to its simple assembly and great efficiency the demand for modular plants in the market is already growing and we are sure of the success with this offering because of Metso’s strong credentials in engineering and project management coupled with great products,” said Mr. Suhen Agarwal, Vice President, South East Asia Japan & Korea, Mining and Construction Technology

Facilities for the Sochi Winter Olympics constructed with high-quality aggregates The city of Sochi, despite its subtropical climate, is preparing to host the Winter Olympic Games in 2014. In connection with this event, major sports and infrastructure facilities are being built.

Because the Olympic site is classified as a 12-magnitude seismic zone, the State Corporation “Olympstroy” and Russian construction regulations only allow the use of high-quality washed aggregates in concrete when constructing critical objects in Sochi.

The above-mentioned requirements

are being met in full by the company Maykop Nerud Company, which produces crushed stone of various fractions and sand using Metso’s mobile crushing and screening plant and a stationary washing complex, processing ancient metamorphic alluvial formations into high-quality construction materials.

To date, Maykop Nerud has shipped to Sochi more than a million tons of inert materials/aggregates produced in its in-house production and in adjacent quarries. Inert materials are delivered to Sochi exclusively by rail,

due to difficult mountain conditions.

The company dispatches 1 to 2 trains containing 3,000 – 6,000 tons of crushed stone and building sand to the Olympic city daily.

Aggregates from Maykop Nerud are being used in many Olympic projects, including a major ice rink, and in tunnel complex No. 1, consisting of 2.5 kilometers of road, railway and service tunnels, which will be used to transport guests at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Games between the Olympic Village and a ski complex in Krasnaya Polyana.

The Maykop Nerud Company has supplied more than 150,000 tons of 0–5 mm washed sand and aggregates fractions of 5–10 mm, 10–20 mm and 5–20 mm for shotcreting and for the concrete lining of the constructed tunnels.

Facilities for Winter Olympics

Maykop Nerud’s washed sand is also being used by manufacturers of tubing for five tunnels under construction.

“Мetso is more than just a partner” Maykop Nerud was established just four years ago and was supplying the inert materials of other producers using an in-house railroad warehouse.

Later, the company entered into contracts with major construction companies running operations in Sochi and purchased its own equipment for crushing and screening.

“While looking for an equipment supplier, we were approached by leading manufacturers of crushing and screening equipment. After their proposals were subsequently crosschecked, Metso was deservedly appreciated as a supplier of high-quality equipment by all other bidders,” says Alexander Kozhanov, General Director of Maykop Nerud.

“Since choosing Metso as our equipment supplier and during the course of our cooperation we have come to the realization that Metso is a true partner for us. In close cooperation with Metso we develop and implement processes unavailable to competitors, work together as a united team and share valuable experience,” Kozhanov adds.

A good example is Metso’s washing complex, operated at Maykop Nerud’s quarry. It is the first complex of its kind in Russia. “In the initial stages of preparation for the technical

12

RESULTS MINERALS & AGGREGATES

4/2011

requirements of the equipment, we had planned to purchase a mobile washing plant, but Metso’s engineers convinced us of the advantages of stationary washing and screening equipment. Today, with the complex working 24/7 at full capacity, it is easy to see that we made the right choice,” says Maykop Nerud’s Deputy General Director, Alexey Poddubny.

purposes and parts can also be delivered to other Metso customers as required. The reliability of the equipment and its operational effectiveness mainly depend on the availability and prompt replacement of spares and consumables – a prerequisite ensured by the mutual efforts of Metso personnel and Maykop Nerud staff.

From sand-gravel mix to quality aggregates

Powerful crushing complex in combination with washing plant

As raw material Maykop Nerud uses metamorphic alluvial sediments of hard rock, deposited in the valley of the Belaya River millions of years ago.

The sand-gravel mix in the company’s quarry features some properties of granite with excellent hardness, making it a good feed for the production of quality aggregates.

Straightforward quarrying technology is utilized: excavators dig up the sand-gravel mix and move it to stockpiles. From the stockpiles the sand-gravel mix is reclaimed to Metso’s three-stage crushing and screening process, consisting of tracked jaw and cone crushing plants and a mobile screen. Crushed to the size of 0–20 mm, the material is transported by conveyors to a washing complex consisting of a feed hopper, conveyors, a 4-deck washing screen, a spiral classifier and an automated control system.

In order to facilitate the operations of its customers, Metso has established a stock of spares and consumables on Maykop Nerud’s territory; Maykop Nerud can use the stock for its own

Having taken into account the growing demand for high-quality end products, Maykop Nerud and Metso agreed to extend their cooperation and create an even more powerful stationary crushing and screening complex, including a primary jaw crusher and two stationary cone crushers for operation in combination with a stationary washing complex.

“Beginning in the second quarter of 2012, we will use the new stationary crushing and screening complex along with the mobile equipment, thus allowing us to increase our capacity to 130,000 – 140,000 tons per month in order to meet the constantly growing demand,” says Stanislav Steblyansky, Deputy General Director of Maykop Nerud.

The company’s sand-gravel-mix resources are expected to last upwards of 20 years. Upon the completion of mining and once the territory has been rehabilitated, the quarry will be transformed into an artificial lake for recreation and fishing for the residents of the city of Maykop.

In August 2011, construction of the new ice stadium in Olympic Park was at full speed.

The sand & gravel mix is crushed and screened into 0–20 mm fractions using jaw and cone crushing plants combined with a mobile screen.

Maykop quarry, owned by the Maykop Nerud Company Location: City of Maykop, Republic of Adygea, Southern Russia Raw material: Hard rock sand-gravel mix, hardness 40 kN Capacity: 250 t/h, with increase up to 550 t/h in 2012 Resources: Over 10 million cubic meters End products: Washed building sand 0–5 mm and crushed aggregates 5–10 mm, 10–20 mm, 5–20 mm, 20–40 mm.

Construction projects at a total budget of EUR 5.34 billion The construction budget of EUR 5.34 billion for projects in Sochi includes three major sites: the Olympic Park along the shore of Black Sea, the Olympic Village containing residences for the athletes, and the ski resort Krasnaya Polyana in the Caucasus Mountains.

On-site Меtsо equipment: 1 Lokotrack LT106 jaw plant 1 Lokotrack LT200HP cone plant 1 Lokotrack ST3.5 mobile screen 1 Nordberg CVB 2060-4 inclined screen 1 Nordberg SF2870 sand trap

These three sites will be interconnected by numerous new highways, roads, bridges and tunnels.

Essentially, the entire infrastructure within and around the 110-km-long Sochi will be renewed.

More than 155,000 workers are involved in the construction projects.

In total, more than 300,000 cubic meters of concrete will be used for shotcreting and for the solid cladding
