Mining in remote locations


‘A


major challenge for equipment manufacturers in the years ahead will be to provide materials processing systems that are able to be efficiently deployed in increasingly remote locations. Tere will also be a requirement to process increasingly difficult materials that have been overlooked until now. As our demand for steel, aluminium, copper and silica sands and other industrial minerals continues to increase mining companies are constantly looking for new and improved processing tecÚologies that will allow them to process lower grade ores and industrial sands and produce final products suitable for use in downstream processes.


Staged investment Another development we have witnessed is an increased focus on staged


investment as a means of delivery for new mining projects – designing your plant in such a way as to allow for production to begin in the shortest possible timeframe while planning for further plant and process development.
