The quality of the papers presented in the conference as well as the exhibitions booths was well represented by industry, academia as well as manufacturers/consultants. It is also one of the best occasion for networking among the participants. I must thank the MEI team and Dr Wills for the meticulous design and execution of the event.

It was my first participation in a MEI conference. The atmosphere during the entire conference was very friendly. As the conference was relatively small compared to other conferences I attended in Germany, the networking with other researchers was much easier. Furthermore, the topics discussed during the conference were a nice insight into the current problems in mineral processing. The academical background of the participants showed that mineral processing is a topic, which affects many different researchers (geologists, material engineers, chemical engineers, etc.). I can highly recommend this conference and would be happy to attend other MEI conferences in the future. <br />Many thanks to everyone!<br /><br />BjörnBjörnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09750442015222096890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908362959739425575.post-52211106353813924332018-12-04T00:24:12.142+00:002018-12-04T00:24:12.142+00:00I am extremely happy to read your excellent summar...I am extremely happy to read your excellent summary. We, mineral engineers and practicing plant operators generally did not bother about mineralogy and were happy with chemical analyses. People talk about assay of tailings but do not talk whether any liberated and recoverable values reported in tailings due to operational conditions.<br />Mineralogy has to be the backbone(first information) to plan mining(blasting) to beneficiation.<br /><br />I hope more focus and attention is given to mineralogy and properties of composite particles.<br />Rao,T.C.Rao,T.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11160713677908165404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908362959739425575.post-28258065892009903732018-12-03T09:42:47.423+00:002018-12-03T09:42:47.423+00:00It was great to meet you Philippe.
