Feasibility, Technical Due Diligence & FEED

De-Risking Capital Investments in Base Metals & Scrap Recycling

Multi-million-dollar metallurgical projects succeed or fail based on the accuracy of early-stage data. Whether you are breaking ground on a greenfield facility, acquiring an idle asset, or planning a major capital expansion, Proventus Valuetech provides the engineering and forensic due diligence required to secure financing, minimize technical risk, and guarantee operational viability.

Our Core Capabilities

Feasibility Studies

We deliver comprehensive, bankable feasibility reports that financial institutions and investment boards rely on for project funding.

  • Mass & Energy Balance Frameworks: Rigorous chemical and thermodynamic modeling to predict exact plant throughput and utility consumption.
  • CapEx & OpEx Optimization: Capital and operational expenditure forecasting based on current global logistics, equipment manufacturing costs, and energy tariffs.
  • Financial Modeling Integration: Clear calculations of project IRR, payback periods, and sensitivity analyses against commodity price volatility.

Technical Due Diligence

Acquiring an operating or idle metallurgical asset carries hidden operational risks. We act as your independent engineering partner to uncover the ground reality.

  • Asset Integrity & Valuation: On-site engineering evaluations of existing reactors, smelting furnaces, electrowinning cells, and rectifiers to determine residual life and refurbishment costs.
  • Process & Document Forensics: Detailed audits of legacy process flowsheets, mass balances, and historical data to verify if the asset can hit rated capacity.
  • Reactivation Roadmaps: Complete technical scoping, cost estimation, and safety timelines to bring decommissioned facilities back online safely.

Front-End Engineering Design (FEED)

We bridge the gap between conceptual flowsheets and detailed construction blueprints, locking in parameters early to prevent costly alterations.

  • Process Flowsheet Development: Custom hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical circuit configurations optimized for your target feedstocks (Cu, Zn, Pb, Co, Ni, e-scrap).
  • Equipment Sizing & Layouts: Drafting of major equipment datasheets, initial P&IDs, and plant footprint configurations.
  • Regulatory & Environmental Scoping: Preliminary engineering for ETPs, gas scrubbing systems, and hazardous waste containment.

Our Proven Methodology

Phase 1

Feedstock & Data Validation

We analyze your specific ore grade assays or complex secondary scrap compositions to define baseline recovery potential.

Phase 2

Process Design & Simulation

Our engineering team runs simulations to optimize chemical dosing, thermal profiles, and mass flow circuits.

Phase 3

Project Report & Risk Sign-Off

We assemble the final technical engineering package, fully optimized for board review and financial sign-off.

Proven Project Track Record

Technical Due Diligence: Hindustan Copper Limited (Jaghadia)
Proventus Valuetech conducted a comprehensive technical due diligence and asset evaluation at the Jaghadia facility, reviewing process documentation, plant integrity, and operational readiness to support strategic decision-making.
