Predictive geometallurgy report & recommendations for flowsheet development in WP2-4

DescriptionThis report presents the results of the integrated geometallurgical characterisation workflow applied to each EXCEED case study, including geochemical, mineralogical & physical properties of the orientation samples. Conventional XRF, XRD, SEM, EPMA, etc.) and advanced techniques (XCT, μXRF, LA-ICP-MS, automated mineralogy, Raman) characterise the bulk chemistry and mineralogy, identify the CRM- and PHE-bearing minerals, industrial minerals, as well as the textures and elemental deportments of the CRMs and PHEs in the mineral phases.The various processing options based on the characterisation results and tailored to each case study will be presented as well as their limitation with respect to ore properties and PHEs.Table of contents1.
