  • Pre-concentration of mill feed by separating it into high-grade and low-grade fractions
  • Build a smaller mill or effectively increase the capacity of an existing mill
  • Remove low-grade fraction that is actually costing money to mill
  • Add previously uneconomic zones to reserves
  • Manage ore blending programs more effectively
  • Selective high grading of low grade stockpiles and waste dumps
  • Recover value from previously uneconomic waste
  • Reduction of environmental risks and costs
  • Reduce mill energy consumption
  • Send acid generating waste rock to appropriately designed dumps
  • Optimization of multiple process streams
  • Send appropriate ore directly to the mill or leach heaps or smelter
  • Pre-concentration of ore underground or at remote sites
  • Reduce haulage and hoisting costs
  • Mine satellite orebodies and sort on site
  • Monitoring of the composition of the mill feed
  • Provide real time data to operators for process optimization and work index prediction.
