  1. 1. Properties of Ugandan minerals and fireclay refractories

    Author : John Baptist Kirabira; Stefan Jonsson; Thomas Johansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; kaolin; clay; Ugandan minerals; fireclay; refractory; powders characterization; beneficiation; ceramics; mullite; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Development of products which can be produced from a country’s natural resources is very important as far as the industrialization of a nation and saving foreign exchange is concerned. Presently, industries in Uganda and the other states in the Lake Victoria region import all refractory-related-consumables, as the demand cannot be met locally. READ MORE

  2. 2. Geometallurgical study of historical tailings from the Yxsjöberg tungsten mine in Sweden : Characterization and reprocessing options

    Author : Jane Mulenshi; Jan Rosenkranz; Saeed Chehreh Chelgani; Pablo Brito-Parada; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Critical raw materials; Historical tailings; Tungsten; Scheelite; Geometallurgical approach; Characterization; Beneficiation; Reprocessing; Gravity separation; Magnetic separation; Flotation; Mineral Processing; Mineralteknik; Centrumbildning - Centrum för avancerad gruvteknik och metallurgi CAMM ; Centre - Centre for Advanced Mining Metallurgy CAMM ;

    Abstract : Tungsten (W) is listed among the European Union (EU) critical raw materials (CRMs) for its supply risk and economic importance. Primarily, tungsten is produced from scheelite and wolframite mineral ores with 0.08-1.5% tungsten trioxide (WO3) grade. READ MORE

  3. 3. Reprocessing historical tailings for possible remediation and recovery of critical metals and minerals : The Yxsjöberg case

    Author : Jane Mwaba Mulenshi; Jan Rosenkranz; Saeed Chehreh Chelgani; Urs Peuker; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mining waste; Historical tailings; Conceptual framework; Critical raw materials; Tungsten; Scheelite; Characterization; Mineral liberation analysis; Beneficiation; Reprocessing; Mineral Processing; Mineralteknik; Centrumbildning - Centrum för avancerad gruvteknik och metallurgi CAMM ; Centre - Centre for Advanced Mining Metallurgy CAMM ;

    Abstract : With increasing consumption of primary mineral resources, the generation of mining wastes has also increased thus requiring the mining industry to address the growing environmental concerns. Waste rock and tailings are potential secondary sources of critical raw materials currently in short supply in the European Union, but also a source for environmental issues like acid mine drainage.

  4. 4. Traceability in continuous ore beneficiation processes using process mineralogy signatures

    Author : Pejman Oghazi; Terje Malvik; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mineralteknik; Mineral Processing;

    Abstract : Traceability is the means to identify and follow real or imaginary lots through a process chain. It gives the opportunity to back-track a chain of events, or to predict process outcomes given the origin of a lot. Traceability can be used in different areas, e.g. READ MORE

  5. 5. Application of Chemical Additives in Minerals Beneficiation – Implications on Grinding and Flotation Performance

    Author : Vitalis Chipakwe; Saeed Chehreh Chelgani; Jan Rosenkranz; Tommy Karlkvist; Irina Chernyshova; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy; Grinding aid; Flowability; Dry grinding; FT4 Powder Rheometer; Surface properties; Rheology; Flotation; Polymers; Surface chemistry; Green Chemistry; Mineral Processing; Mineral Processing; Mineralteknik;

    Abstract : The application of chemical additives, known as grinding aids (GAs), dates to 1930 in the cement industry. Unlike the cement industry, where the use of GAs is in the final processing step, it could be one of the first processing steps in ore beneficiation. READ MORE
