Miller, Jan D. | Evaluation of a PC image-based on-line coarse particle size analyzer | A PC image-based, on-line coarse particle size analysis system is being developed for the control of crushing and grinding circuits. Initial results had indicated that the system is accurate when tested with irregularly shaped particles which are stationary and do not overlap with each other.

Miller, Jan D. | Evaluation of stucco binder for agglomeration in the heap leaching of copper ore | It is known that the presence of excess fines in heap leaching operations may cause low recovery due to reduced heap permeability and/or channeling of lixiviant flow. These problems are mitigated to some extent by agglomeration pretreatment prior to heap leaching. Sulfuric acid leach solution is the... | | 2011-01-01 |
