Introduction to the processing stages that follow the discovery and mining of mineral deposits. Focus on the various unit operations in the treatment of a mined ore body from Run-of-mine ore through to a marketable mineral product. This mineral product may be processed further through hydrometallurgical - solutions, or pyrometallurgical - heat, processes to a metal product or utilised metal form. This unit is designed for non-science and engineering graduates who work in and with mining companies. |
