In 2014 we welcomed a new sponsor to the
Process Mineralogy series of conferences, Melbourne based
MinAssist, a progressive young company offering services to the minerals industry in the interpretation of mineralogical information.
MinAssist was founded by
Dr. Will Goodall, who was involved with Brisbane-based
Intellection in the early days of QEMSCAN technology, as was one of our keynote speakers at
Process Mineralogy '18,
Prof. Alan Butcher.
At
Process Mineralogy '17 another progressive young company joined us as a sponsor, Cornwall's
Petrolab, led by
James Strongman.

In 2015 Will and James teamed up to form
iMin Solutions Ltd, with the aim of bringing greater mineralogical capability directly to the mine site and mineral processing plant, and we welcome this collaborative company as a sponsor of
Process Mineralogy '18.
iMin Solutions is also teamed up with fellow conference sponsor
ZEISS, working to provide end to end data interpretation and analytical solutions for mine sites, and
Petrolab developing technology specifically for automated mineralogy based applications on the mine site and in the laboratory.

Mineralogy is the most basic and the first exhaustive study to be done from all stages of exploration to exploitation of minerals.
ReplyDeleteIt is unfortunate that this specialisation and its application is most neglected and even many Teaching Institutes are not giving enough importance to this in mining/mineral courses.
I am extremely happy that this even is going to be held and some Organisations are coming forward to support and experts are going to deliver lectures.
All the best.
