Characterizing and modelling products recovered from gold-bearing mine tailings using a novel clean technology

AJ Min Inc. is developing a novel technology to recover gold from tailings material. The technology requires little energy, little to no reagents, and little to no additional water. Past testwork has indicated that this technology can recover significant amounts of gold from some tailings material, and that the recovered gold can be upgraded. This project will build on previous testwork to characterize the test products and develop metallurgical models to predict and improve performance. In addition, a fully automated pilot unit will be assembled, programmed, and tested.
