A Step-Change in Exploration Target Definition


MEGWA meeting for July 2014:

A STEP CHANGE IN METAL EXPLORATION TARGET DEFINITION
How advances in metal hydro-extraction technology can redefine the target that you are looking for.

Talk presented by Frank Trask and Ivor Bryan, INNOVAT MPS Limited

New leaching technology focuses on material handling and an innovative ways of effecting low energy agitation. All of this lowers capital and operating costs for oxide gold and copper plants so that a new range of deposits in both size and grade can be considered as candidates for early cash flow. This is contrasted to existing methods, and the contrasting relative capital and operating costs are discussed.
