Minerals
The mining industry has long contributed to the wealth of Australia. All stages from exploration to mineral processing to tailings, analytical chemistry provides a key role.
Exploration requires low level analysis to identify mineral deposits as well as determining the economic feasibility of their extraction. Once an ore body has been identified, mine grade control and metallurgical process analysis ensures certainty of on-going financial returns. In other words, mineral processing needs to be able to produce a high-quality product whilst minimising harm to the environment or losses of valuable resources.
Compliance Equipment provides laboratory testing equipment to support the mining industry and commercial laboratories by helping to characterise exploration, mining and process samples.
