    Abstract : The risks of starting, operating and closing mining projects have become higher than ever. In order to stay ahead of the competition, mining companies have to manage various risks: technical, environmental, legal, regulatory, political, cyber, financial and social. Some of these can be mitigated with the help of geometallurgy. READ MORE

  2. 2. Development of a geometallurgical framework for iron ores - A mineralogical approach to particle-based modeling

    Author : Mehdi Parian; Pertti Lamberg; Jan Rosenkranz; Julie Hunt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geometallurgy; process simulation; breakage characterization; ore texture; iron ore; modal mineralogy;

    Abstract : The demands for efficient utilization of ore bodies and proper risk management in the mining industry have resulted in a new cross-disciplinary subject called geometallurgy. Geometallurgy connects geological, mineral processing and subsequent downstream processing information together to provide a comprehensive model to be used in production planning and management.

  3. 3. Mineralogical, chemical and textural properties of the Malmberget iron deposit : a process mineralogically characterisation

    Author : Cecilia Lund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Malmgeologi; Ore Geology;

    Abstract : This thesis combine two different but closely connected disciplines in a mining process to each other, ore geology and process mineralogy by studying mineralogical-textural features of the ore and the ore concentrate in an apatite iron ore deposit in Malmberget, Sweden. Apatite iron ore deposits (Kiruna type) exist in a few places around the world and the two most important deposits are mined by LKAB at Kiruna and Malmberget. READ MORE

  4. 4. Mineralogical, chemical and textural characterisation of the Malmberget iron ore deposit for a geometallurgical model

    Author : Cecilia Lund; Terje Malvik; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Malmgeologi; Ore Geology;

    Abstract : The northern Norrbotten ore province is an intensely mineralised area and has traditionally been a very important mining district. It contains Fe, Cu-Au, Au, and Ag deposits ranging from world-class ore deposits to small and uneconomic ones (Martinsson 2004). The most important are the Kiruna and Malmberget iron ores and the Aitik Cu-Au deposit. READ MORE

  5. 5. Development of a geometallurgical testing framework for ore grinding and liberation properties

    Author : Abdul-Rahaman Mwanga; Jan Rosenkranz; Hakan Benzer; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Grindability test; mineral texture; breakage properties; mineral liberation; process modeling; geometallurgy; Mineral Processing; Mineralteknik;

    Abstract : Efficient measurement methods for comminution properties are an important prerequisite for testing the variability of an ore deposit within the geometallurgical context. This involves the investigation of effects of mineralogy and mineral texture on the breakage of mineral particles. READ MORE
