Tharisa, the platinum group metals (PGMs) and chrome co-producer, has announced that cold commissioning of its Vulcan ultra-fine chrome recovery and beneficiation plant has commenced. The timetable to completion of the new $55 million plant remains firmly on track with initial saleable production due before year end, it says.
Falling prices for iron ore with lower quality than 60 % Fe have led increasingly to the design of iron ore beneficiation lines. General problems of water scarcity and risks with tailings dams have led to the focus shifting to dry beneficiation technologies.
The critical area of concern in any chrome ore beneficiation plant is the grinding circuit followed by beneficiation circuit comprising gravity units such as wet shaking tables and spirals. The effectiveness of grinding circuit depends on …
