Insights
Notes from the laboratory, the design institute and the sites we operate. Articles are published as they are reviewed by the engineers who did the work.
Publishing schedule
This section is being built out. The first articles cover the questions that come up most often in project enquiries: how much test work a bankable study really needs, when dense medium separation beats flotation on lithium ores, what drives the gap between design recovery and actual recovery in the first operating year, and how the cooperation model changes the incentives in a contract operation.
If you need an answer before an article exists, ask our engineers directly. Enquiries about test work and flowsheet selection are answered by the people who run the laboratory.
In the meantime
How we scope test work
The four stage chain from analysis through pilot trials, with the parameters each test controls and four reference programmes.
Test work and researchWhat a project record looks like
Delivered projects by region, and four case studies with the outcome figures reported for each.
ProjectsSend us the ore, the tonnage target and the site conditions. We reply with a scoped proposal.
