We present a novel methodology for numerically reconstructing a three-dimensional (3D)
texture for simulating multi-mineral rock and estimating the particle properties and liberation …

A liberation simulation is outlined based on image analysis of mineral texture images such
as those produced by automated mineralogical analysis. The method relies on a freeware …

As minerals frequently appear in complex associations in nature, liberation is one of the
most relevant aspects in ore processing, and is achieved through comminution, which …

Particle size control in mineral processing is typically achieved using an index
characterising the whole distribution, eg the sieve opening through which a given mass …

The microstructures of mineral materials determine their mineral processing characteristics.
Realistic microstructure models are a precondition for simulations of various mineral …

With many of the world's richest ore deposits already depleted, deposits with complex
mineralogy, higher competence and lower grades are now being targeted and mining …
