Process mineralogy of metalliferous ores: An introduction for geologists
A workshop hosted by Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter, United Kingdom
22nd - 25th June 2010
This workshop aims to give an introduction to process mineralogy of metalliferous ores. It will provide hands-on experience of common mineral processing techniques, and demonstrate, through examples, how mineralogical analysis, using QEMSCAN and other techniques, is used to optimize mineral processing operations. An excursion will focus on the geology and past mining operations in Cornwall. The workshop is targeted at junior geologists and postgraduate geology students that work or interact with mineral processing operations.
The workshop is supported by the Applied Mineralogy Group of the Mineralogical Society, the Society of Economic Geologists, and the IMA Commission on Ore Mineralogy.
Conveners:
Jens Andersen, Rob Fairhurst, Richard Pascoe, Gavyn Rollinson, Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter
Maria Boni, Università di Napoli
Richard Herrington, Natural History Museum, London
