Molycop has expanded its support for gold producers across Asia with a new Product Manager (Asia) role focused on delivering local expertise and smarter, data-driven leaching solutions.

Key Facts

As gold producers across Asia look to improve efficiency, sustainability and recovery rates, Molycop continues to invest in targeted regional support with the creation of a dedicated Product Manager (Asia) role focused on gold leaching solutions.

Supporting smarter leaching

Asia is home to some of the world’s most dynamic and fast-evolving gold mining operations – from large-scale operations in China to mid-tier and emerging producers in Indonesia, the Philippines, Mongolia and Central Asia. As these operations grow in complexity, the demand for precision control, real-time monitoring and proactive process optimisation has never been greater.

The new Product Manager (Asia) role is designed to connect customers directly to Molycop’s gold leaching solutions.

Molycop’s integrated offering helps clients move away from trial and error towards data-informed decision-making. By combining real-time instrumentation, advanced analytics and on-the-ground technical support, Molycop enables sites to reduce cyanide consumption, improve control over residence times and drive higher gold recovery rates.

Local support, global expertise

Alex Zheng will act as the primary technical contact for gold leaching customers across Asia, working closely with both site teams and Molycop’s global network of metallurgists, engineers and product experts. His role includes:

• identifying key performance opportunities in leaching circuits
• supporting product implementation and training
• bridging client needs with global innovation and development
• helping operations align with modern ESG and safety standards

The expansion of Molycop’s product management function in Asia comes at a pivotal time. Many customers in the region are actively upgrading equipment, digitising their plants or expanding production. Molycop is well-positioned to help operations scale efficiently, with the tools and know-how to optimise leaching performance at every stage.

According to a Molycop spokesperson:

We’re seeing real momentum in gold processing across Asia. Having a dedicated role to support leaching means we can be more agile, responsive and hands-on in helping clients reach their goals.
What does this mean for Molycop’s customers across Asia? More tailored support, faster access to expert advice, smoother implementation of technology, and stronger results with less downtime and waste.
