ioGeochemistry in the Mining Industry

Geometallurgy - Realising the Value of Existing Resources

Processing challenges means metal in the ground doesn’t always correspond to money in the bank. Metallurgical samples seek to identify the critical controls on mineral processing; however, due to their expense they are limited in number and thus spatial extent. By using the rest of the analytical and logging database for a resource in conjunction with metallurgical sample data, it is possible to identify mineralogical controls related to key metallurgical processing parameters. This information can then be used to determine how to maximise the value of your resource. Learn More>>

Ensuring the Quality of Analytical Data

The quality of analytical data is a critical issue in the mining industry as this data forms the basis for decision making:

• Is an ore resource economically viable?
• Is a JV partner delivering the grade and quality of ore the contract specifies for toll treatment?
• Is a processing facility significantly impacting on the quality of surrounding groundwater?

ioGlobal has the expertise and resources to identify QAQC issues and provide advice on their resolution. We provide QAQC review services from on-site sampling through to the laboratory. We also provide efficient, accurate, cost effective review of QA data using our QA Reporter.
