The benefits of ore sorting and sensing in mining
Ilpo Auranen, Chairman of IMA, has been recently interviewed by the International Mining Magazine on ore sorting. In this interview, Ilpo talks about the benefits of ore sorting and sensing in the mining industry, sharing a success story from an iron mine in Brazil.
The success story comes from a nickel operation in Brazil where IMA’s Bulk Ore Sorting System is in place, and from two CMP (Compañía Minera del Pacífico) iron mines, where on-line Fast Conveyor Analyzers (FCAs) are installed.
What is IMA Engineering?
IMA Engineering has used on-line sensors for analyzing ore and waste rock in mining for over 25 years. Today IMA on-line sensors are used in various stages of the mining process including on-line analysis of drill cores, drill chips, ore, and waste in loader buckets, ROM ore analysis on conveyor belts and in bulk ore sorting, as well as slurry analysis in concentrators.
