How Geological Reconstructions Can Carry Implications for Mineral Processing
By Petrolab
This case study briefly highlights the potential to derive, in an approximate sense, likely processing behaviour from geological reconstructions. In turn, this information can feed into geometallurgical planning allowing the early stage recognition of potential processing flowpaths that can be used to optimise recovery. The case study is pulled together from analysis undertaken on the Merensky reef at Northam Platinum in South Africa.
