Understanding microwave induced sorting of porphyry copper ores (2015)
Journal Article
John, R., Batchelor, A., Ivanov, D., Udoudo, O., Jones, D., Dodds, C., & Kingman, S. (2015). Understanding microwave induced sorting of porphyry copper ores. Minerals Engineering, 84, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mineng.2015.10.006

Global demand for minerals and metals is increasing. It has been established that the impact of mining and mineral processing operations must be reduced to sustainably meet the demands of a low grade future. Successful incorporation of ore sorting in... Read More about Understanding microwave induced sorting of porphyry copper ores.

Deriving the ideal ore texture for microwave treatment of metalliferous ores (2015)
Journal Article
Batchelor, A., Jones, D., Plint, S., & Kingman, S. (2015). Deriving the ideal ore texture for microwave treatment of metalliferous ores. Minerals Engineering, 84, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mineng.2015.10.007

High power density microwave treatments on metalliferous ores have historically been shown to reduce ore competency prior to beneficiation at economically feasible energy inputs. However, the relationship between mineralogical textural features and t... Read More about Deriving the ideal ore texture for microwave treatment of metalliferous ores.
