Key Takeaways:

Test work is a critical step in selecting the right technology for your project, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. A well-planned approach not only delivers better results but also saves time and costs by providing a clear understanding of expected outcomes.

As the smelting industry increasingly relies on data to drive performance, selecting the right Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) has never been more critical. KPIs serve as vital tools for monitoring and optimizing operations, helping metallurgical plants achieve greater efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance overall performance. However, the true value of KPIs is realized only when they are strategically chosen, focused on controllable factors and easily understood by all stakeholders.

The term ‘refractory’ should not be seen as a challenge when it comes to gold extraction. As free-milling oxide ores become increasingly depleted, mining operations are looking to extend their life by tapping into the underlying sulphide zone.

Glencore Technology offers innovative, proven solutions that can be applied individually or in combination to enhance recoveries for both Greenfields and Brownfields operations targeting refractory deposits.

Glencore Technology conducted a Secondary Grinding replacement trial at Hudbay’s Stall Mill in Manitoba, Canada. The purpose of this trial was to conduct a proof-of-concept test to demonstrate the effects of 8micron and 10 micron ceramic media in an IsaMill™ and investigate the influence of media SG. In these trials, substantial reductions (>50%) in specific energy were observed compared to tumbling mills; this presentation outlines the findings of that large-scale testwork campaign and the potential for the IsaMill™ operating in coarser duties. 

It is possible to significantly cut OPEX and CAPEX of new flotation plants with the Jameson Concentrator.

Residence time has remained the main design criteria for conventional flotation circuits made up of mechanical cells. Increasing the volume of mechanical cells has been the major trend in the industry to manage high throughput and slow flotation kinetics over the last 100 years. However, the Jameson Cell offers unparallelled fast flotation kinetics with its improved hydrodynamics and small air bubble size. Leveraging fast flotation kinetics and high upgrade ratios, the Jameson Concentrator is a small-footprint solution that can reduce CAPEX and OPEX of new projects.

Is CAPEX becoming a restriction for your project?

Junior mining companies often face CAPEX constraints. This makes it difficult to finance a complete processing plant. Glencore Technology offers modular and flexible technologies that allow you to improve your flowsheet in stages. Small increases in production and revenue are achieved. This revenue can be used to build the downstream areas of the plant. This webinar will show you some of our technologies and the economic advantages of a staged implementation over conventional plant construction.
