Metallurgy and Mineral Processing
Wegmar Limited provides mineral processing and metallurgy expertise across a wide range of commodities, such as developing metallurgical testwork programs to support conceptual flowsheet definition, through to detailed engineering and process plant optimisation to help clients manage production risks and maximise economic returns. Our experts apply operation know-how with various technologies to deliver greenfield projects as well as plant retrofits, optimisation and expansions.
Wegmar Limited use innovative concepts and technologies to investigate and provide solutions for a wide range of projects and commodities. Our services include development and supervision of metallurgical sampling and testwork programs, as well as interpretation of their results. We use a wide range of proprietary and commercial software for process modeling and simulation, optimisation, and advanced methods of capital and operating cost estimating.
We study what is in the ground then deliver designs engineered to extract the value, whether it be by physical separation, leaching, smelting or a combination of these processes.
Our mining process expertise encompasses most of the metallurgical technologies in use today, including:
- Comminution
- Flotation
- CIL/CIP
- Gravity concentration
- Pressure oxidation
- Heap leaching
- Agitation leaching
- SX-EW
- Magnetic separation
- Dense media separation
- Potash compaction
