Mine-Site Labs
On-site mineralogical analysis provides near real-time diagnostics to unequivocally determine reasons for low grade- or recovery performance at a mine. When samples are sent offsite often by the time the data is received, a problem has passed, and data is at best a historical record. Given the urgency of typical problems, therefore, an on-site solution is a desirable option.
PMC Ltd. offers a cost-effective solution involving a considerably lower capital outlay using the new AMICS-Hitachi option, customized training and education, as well as remote access data capture and interpretation realizing a valuable and ongoing monitoring program.
To optimise the plant operations and advance a geo-metallurgical approach, PMC will assist in implementing the following:
-
Provide and install the MineSITE lab including the AMICS-Hitachi configuration of choice, along with the preparation equipment to carry out analysis
-
Develop the AMICs mineral database for the ore deposit.
-
Provide training at our facility and on-site of the AMICS software to operators, as well as data evaluation and report compilation AMICS training for select metallurgical and geological professionals.
-
Establish customised outputs and deliverables with metallurgical and geological staff, extracting data that can produce ore-reserve and metal accounting data, and diagnostic process mineralogy data for plant optimization and control.
-
Ongoing support and consulting are provided by PMC Ltd., including site-visits for quality control and auditing. Detailed mineralogical research that may be beyond the scope of the MineSite facility can be provided by PMC Ltd.
