Silabus bahasa Indonesia –> Basic Metal Mineral Processing

Description

Mineral dressing (mineral processing) is the process of separating valuable minerals from gangue minerals using mechanical and physico-chemical methods. The objective is to produce high-grade concentrates containing valuable minerals and low-grade tailings that are economically viable. The separation process is based on the physical properties of minerals as well as the physico-chemical characteristics of their surfaces. Before metallic minerals can be utilized or classified into specific categories, several important processing stages must be carried out.

This training is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental concepts, stages, and industrial applications of metal mineral processing.

Learning Objectives
