Hexagon delivers technologies that connect all parts of a mine, leveraging sensors, software, in-field apps and cloudware to connect people and processes, reduce costs, and improve safety and productivity throughout the life of the mine. Its integrated, data-driven solutions help eliminate the need for disparate products across workflows within mine planning, fleet management, monitoring, safety and beyond. This is the Power of One – a life-of-mine technology partner with holistic, integrated solutions – and the data generated from it is allowing mines to fully leverage their potential while creating continuous improvement opportunities.
Materials technology plays an important role in keeping the world’s slurry pumps up and running. As the component that puts the energy into the slurry flow, the slurry pump has some of the highest wear rates in the mineral processing industry, so the ability to know how to select the proper materials and design the best materials for slurry flow applications is an important function. This is the purpose and function of KSB’s state-of-the-art materials R&D lab.
Metso is looking to position itself as the preferred technology and solutions provider for the battery minerals industry, with a fully integrated offering from minerals extraction to refined battery chemicals and end-of-life battery black mass recycling. The OEM can, today, provide sustainable technology and equipment to serve this sector, with its Planet Positive offering ensuring battery minerals production comes with the lowest possible footprint as well as the highest possible productivity.
In June 2023, Liebherr launched its latest mining excavator – the R 9300 Generation 8 – into the global market. Following successful validation at a mine in Indonesia with customer PT Karunia Armada Indonesia (Karunia), the R 9300 has proven its ability to improve both productivity and efficiency on site. Once the machine enters serial production[…]
Daniel Gleeson, Editor of International Mining, interviews Dr Jan Petzold, GHH Group CEO
An interview with Leo Perry, Engineering, Lead Product Manager, KSB Mining, and Jonathan Samuel, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, KSB Mining
Metso Outotec’s large mill discharge offering started comparatively late – in 2015 – but it has been fast catching up with competitors. As a result of this late start, many of the sustainability benefits companies are only just getting round to retrofitting on their pumps have been incorporated from the off on its MD Series.[…]
ZEISS recently introduced ZEISS Mineralogic 3D for automated quantitative mineralogy in a move that, it says, will enable the mining industry to achieve greater productivity and increased efficiencies. By understanding composition, mineral relationships and fabric of the geological materials under scrutiny, including locked grains, miners are now able to respond faster to critical production questions.
Mining is faced with depleting reserves, decreasing ore grades, and pressure for sustainable operations. International Mining Editorial Director Paul Moore recently visited FLSmidth’s Technology Center in Midvale, Salt Lake City with Wayne Douglas, VP, Head of Mining R&D and Innovation. He gave an in-depth insight into what is a world class R&D facility that helps[…]
