5N Plus is an integrated producer with both primary and secondary refining capabilities. 5N Plus’ primary refining capabilities are such that it can treat very low-grade metal concentrates, and extract and refine the metals of interest so that they can be fed to its secondary refining operations, where 5N Plus attains a high level of purity. Its primary refining capabilities also enable it to treat complex feeds and very low-grade concentrates containing only small amounts of the metals of interest, and thus provide its customers with recycling [[solution]]s.
