In a recent International Mining Magazine article, Adrian Dance introduces SRK Consulting's partnership with Base Metallurgical Laboratories and their acquisition of a laboratory-scale batch X-ray transmission (XRT) sensing unit. This unit enables pre-concentration testing, offering a more cost-effective and faster alternative for assessing material amenability.
Adrian discusses the importance of standardization in pre-concentration testing for benchmarking and industry-wide comparisons. The XRT sensor unit's capabilities are highlighted, including its potential applications in assessing semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mill pebbles.
