Cornish company Gravity Mining is the latest sponsor of Physical Separation '22

We are very pleased to welcome Gravity Mining Ltd as a first time sponsor of an MEI conference. The company is the home of the original Mozley Multi Gravity Separator (MGS) which they have improved in recent years, focusing on reliability and ease of use.  Apart from the MGS the company has a range of products, and works closely with Cornish company SW Metallurgical Services to supply top quality mineral spirals for gravity mining applications.

Technical Director Treve Mildren worked with MGS inventor Richard Mozley as a Design Engineer before founding Gravity Mining and his brother David, Sales and Marketing Director, who has spent a lifetime in operational and marketing roles with mining equipment around the world, said "We are looking forward to participating in the Physical Separation '22 conference and learning about new ideas and developments. Gravity Mining's MGS is well known in its traditional tin, tungsten and tantalum markets worldwide, but we hope that sponsoring this conference will raise the product and brand exposure in new markets. Based on excellent pilot scale performance, several new chromite, gold and rare earths projects are evaluating production plants using the MGS. Learning how to recycle Waste Electrical Electronic Equipment (WEEE) has been a new challenge as well".

There is currently a final call for abstracts for the conference, which should be submitted before the end of February. Two high profile keynote lecturers have already signed up. Prof. Kevin Galvin, of the University of Newcastle, Australia, will discuss new challenges for gravity concentration and classification of fine particles and Prof. Neil Rowson, of the University of Birmingham and Bunting-Redditch, UK, will review the role of magnetic separation in the development of critical and strategic metal recovery flowsheets.

Much to look forward to in May.

    With regard to the use of the phrase in this posting 'home of the original Mozley Multi Gravity Separator', interested readers may wish to view MEI posting https://min-eng.blogspot.com/2015/06/in-memory-of-richard-mozley-and-his.html and Thursday June 11th 2015 posting https://min-eng.blogspot.com/2015/06/physical-separation-15-conference-diary.html where Salter Cyclones is mentioned. Salter Cyclones Ltd continues to supply Multi-Gravity Separators and Hydrocyclones from its offices in Redruth and Cheltenham.

      Barry has taken the phrase directly from our website. Yes, “A home of….” or “One of the homes of the original Mozley Multi Gravity Separator” would be more accurate, but not as compelling to read in our marketing material. We openly acknowledge that the Salter Cyclones and Gravity Mining MGS machines have both evolved from the ashes of Richard Mozley Limited. We are committed to building on Richard Mozley’s original ideas and will always be careful to recognise his legacy.

  2. As an ex Richard Mozley Ltd employee, I’m not sure the words ‘home of the original Mozley MultiGravity Separator’ are accurate. Salter Cyclones have been supplying Multigravity separators since the disbanding of Mozley in 2010 – see www.saltercyclones.com’.

    1. Thanks Andrew. I refer you also to Ian's comment, where he also notes this.

    2. Andrew, I am a little perplexed at the idea of a late employee of RML claiming any sort of connection to the MSG or the Mozley Hydroclclones in general. Whilst I do know you and Paul, I do not know Trevor and surely patents on the MSG should have kept the rights to this machine in the hands of just one.company, preferably Salter Cyclones as they can claim lineage back to Richard.
