MET 725 - Advanced Comminution (3 units)
Advanced quantitative and descriptive treatment, the underlying theories and fundamentals of the unit operations used in sampling, liberation and sizing of ores.
Grading Basis: Graded
Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Spring - Odd Years
Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. supervise, manage, and identify geological deposits to obtain a representative sample and select lab comminution (crushing and grinding) tests.
2. compare and contrast lab metallurgical testwork and data to determine the optimal comminution design and flowsheet for an ore.
3. demonstrate and be able to communicate the principles, chemistry, energy requirements and physical properties of comminution.
4. identify comminution operational problems with steps to improve liberation, grinding, metal recovery, reduce costs and ensure closure plans.
5. identify, explain and moderate hazards and environmental aspects of comminution.
