    ARTISANAL MINING IN CENTRAL AFRICA!!

    ARTISANAL MINING IN CENTRAL AFRICA!!

    Came across this interesting article by S.M. Rupprecht (SAIMM Journal vol. 117) explaining bench mining utilizing manual labour and mechanized equipment as a proposed mining method for artisanal small-scale mining in Central Africa. The use of intensive manual labour as well as mechanised mining strikes a balance between job creation and project economics.

    IS YOUR PIT OPTIMISATION ADJUSTED FOR THE CURRENT ECONOMY??

    IS YOUR PIT OPTIMISATION ADJUSTED FOR THE CURRENT ECONOMY??

    The mining industry is notorious for its volatile nature as commodity prices fluctuate. History shows that it's the companies that can adjust to the market changes the quickest that lead the pack. Mining on a 5-year old mine design that was based on a Whittle shell all those years ago can mean you're either leaving value in the ground, or more detrimental, you're now mining in areas where profitability is going South... With almost a decade of Whittle open pit optimisation ex

    MINING ROCKSTAR OF THE WEEK – MAGNESITE!!

    MINING ROCKSTAR OF THE WEEK – MAGNESITE!!

    Magnesite is a magnesium carbonate mineral with a chemical composition of MgCO3. It is named after the presence of magnesium in its composition. Magnesite usually forms during the alteration of magnesium-rich rocks or carbonate rocks by metamorphism or chemical weathering. Magnesite is used to produce magnesium oxide (MgO), which serves as a refractory material for the steel industry and as a raw material for the chemical industry. Small amounts of magnesite are also used as

    MINERAL PROCESSING METHOD OF THE WEEK - FLOTATION SEPARATION!!

    Flotation is the most widely used method for the concentration of fine-grained minerals. It takes advantage of the different physicochemical surface properties of minerals—in particular, their wettability, which can be a natural property or one artificially changed by chemical reagents. By altering the hydrophobic (water-repelling) or hydrophilic (water-attracting) conditions of their surfaces, mineral particles suspended in water can be induced to adhere to air bubbles passi
