From exploration to plant feed
Mapping, sampling and resource modelling lead to selective mining, crushing and sizing for a stable processing feed.
- Exploration and geological modelling
- Extraction and grade control
- Crushing, sizing and homogenisation
Five operating mining areas
Mining is where MKT’s industrial experience began
The work starts with identification and extraction, then moves through feed preparation, process-route design and concentrate production.
MKT Mining Operations
MKT operates five mining areas and has completed exploration, extraction and processing projects across ten provinces. Manganese, lead, zinc and polymetallic feeds form the core of this experience.
The result is more than extraction: geological data, beneficiation tests and feed behaviour directly support process design and the company’s chemical production.
Beneficiation for each feed
Gravity, magnetic and flotation tests show which route delivers the strongest recovery at a practical energy and reagent cost.
- XRF and ICP-OES analysis
- Flotation and separation tests
- Mass balance and recovery optimisation
Process engineering and start-up
More than 60 processing projects have taken MKT from laboratory testwork through pilot work, equipment design and industrial commissioning.
- Flowsheet and equipment design
- Plant construction and commissioning
- Operator training and circuit improvement
