Nesch Mintec and Metcelerate debut as sponsors for Comminution '25 and a welcome back to Sino Grinding

Not only did Nesch Mintec and Metcelerate sponsor an MEI Conference for the first time, Flotation '23 was also their first appearance at an MEI Conference. They were obviously pleased with the outcome, as they agreed during Flotation '23 to support Flotation '25, and we are more than pleased to hear that they have also made the decision to sponsor Comminution '25, which will also be at the Vineyard Hotel, Cape Town.

Nesch Mintec Tanzania Ltd is a privately owned company formed mainly to offer laboratory analytical services and consultancy in mineral processing and extractive metallurgy to the mining sector of Tanzania, East Africa and beyond. Mining has become one of the fast-growing industries in Tanzania which also contributes much to the economy of the country. Due to this rapid growth Nesch Mintec was started to ease some of the challenges which small to large scale miners are facing in Tanzania. These miners had little knowledge on how to start, operate and to troubleshoot some of the challenges in their mineral processing activities, which had a great impact on the growth of the mining industry.

They said "we would like to thank the organizers and participants of the MEI conference for making it a successful and enriching event. We are grateful for the opportunity to showcase our mineral processing services and solutions to the mining industry". 

Metcelerate provides training solutions to build technical competence in the mineral processing workplace for metallurgists and engineers and recently won the annual IChemE 2022 Global Award for Business Start-Up companies. Metcelerate was represented at Flotation '23 by Katja Freitag, the General Manager from Canada, Jenny Weise, Program Manager from Cape Town and CEO Diana Drinkwater who gave a keynote lecture on the final day.

And since the last Comminution '25 update (posting of 23rd October) we have welcomed back Sino Grinding International (SGI) who also sponsored Comminution '23. SGI is headquartered in China, with offices in Australia, South Africa and USA. The company has been represented at five MEI comminution conferences, but at Comminution '23 was sponsoring and exhibiting for the first time. SGI is a designer and manufacturer of grinding media for mining companies around the world.
