We welcome back CITIC Heavy Industries as a sponsor of Comminution '25

CITIC Heavy Industries Co. Ltd (CITIC HIC), formerly known as Luoyang Mining Machinery, was one of the national key construction projects of China's First Five-Year Plan. The company has experienced significant changes and improvements over the past 60 years and has grown into both a national and international innovative and high-tech enterprise, a global large-sized backbone enterprise which has one of the largest manufacturing facilities for heavy-duty equipment that supports both projects in China and overseas. 

CITIC HIC has been involved with three previous MEI comminution conferences, in 2014, 2016 and 2018 but only once before, at Comminution '16, as a sponsor, so we are pleased to welcome them to Comminution '25, joining the other major companies who are sponsoring this event in Cape Town in April 2025.

The photo below, at Comminution '16 shows CITIC representatives Jianjun Tian (left), Richard Wood and Michael Rauscher (right), with Spike Taylor of Multotec Rubber (centre) and Steve Morrell (2nd left). Steve Morrell is the founder of CITIC SMCC Process Technology Pty Ltd, Australia, which operates as an independent consulting company, and is ultimately owned by CITIC Heavy Industries. At last year's SME Annual Meeting in Denver, Steve was the recipient of the Robert H. Richards Award for his long service and numerous contributions to the science and practice of comminution and mineral processing. We look forward to seeing the team again at Comminution '25.
