    Real-time process improvement through advanced instrumentation and control strategies

    24 May 2019 9:00am10:00am
    With the decline of in-house expertise, in both the research organisations and end users of technology, Clarity bridges the implementation gap of new technologies and industry solutions.
  • Gaps in the Understanding and Management of Particulates

    Gaps in the Understanding and Management of Particulates

    The Gaps in the Understanding and Management of Particulates program is jointly developed by The University of Queensland’s Sustainable Minerals Institute's Minerals Industry Safety and Health Centre (MISHC) and School of the Environments OHS Program.
  • The Human Aspects of Mining

    Human Aspects of Mining Program

    The Human Aspects of Mining program aims to provide the industry with evidence-based guidance that will assist them in achieving a step-change in safety and health.
    The program considers a range of research areas associated with of mining including the human aspects of automation, human systems integration, new technology readiness and uptake, proximity interface design, and whole-body vibration.

    Understanding the margins - Application of energy at the EHM Concentrator

    17 May 2019 9:00am10:00am
    Utilisation of a processing asset extends beyond the number of hours it runs for. When mines start to approach the end of their life, significant redundant capacity opens up in the mines processing assets. Is this capacity really redundant or can we re-think our approach to keep them delivering value at the design rate?

    Complex Orebodies - the story so far

    10 May 2019 9:00am10:00am
    The Complex Orebodies program has now been going for 15 months. The program has the aim of identifying the challenges and solutions related to responsible unlocking of Complex Orebodies - orebodies which are currently inaccessible due to complexities across the range of Social, Environmental, Governance and Technical areas. This presentation will provide an update on the overall program, its performance against the original objectives, and future plans.

    Applying Integrated Process Knowledge to viable recovery of complex orebodies

    3 May 2019 9:00am10:00am
    The seminar is linked to the risk factors preventing the utilisation of 75% of the world's large known copper resources.  A picture will be painted of how being able to link the processing route to the knowledge of primary rock properties can enable modelling, and therefore risk reduction and potential acceptance by the industry, of dramatically different approaches to the mining process.  Linking technical understanding to mapping routes that can dramatically change social benefit, environmental impact, water and energy usage, tailing and waste management, and long-term society benefit from mineral resources.

    Processing Iron Oxide Copper Gold Uranium Ore

    12 April 2019 9:00am10:00am
    Iron oxide copper gold uranium ore is an important source of metal for Australia. Processing of IOCG-U ore is complex due to sequential separations resulting in multiple products and the need to carefully consider the deportment of radioactive elements. ‘For the process to be effective, geologists mineral processors pyro and hydro-metallurgists must work together.’
  • Pyrite types and their effect on flotation electrochemistry

    5 April 2019 9:00am10:00am
    Pyrite is one of the most important minerals in the beneficiation of gold, platinum group metals, and base metals such as copper. However, “pyrite, is not pyrite, is not pyrite”. Many types of pyrite exist, with a high level of variability between them. Identifying different pyrite types within ores and understanding their properties has enormous benefits towards improving the flotation process.
