Challenges to the mining industry only continue to grow. There is pressure to be more financially streamlined, radically more efficient than in the past, while being conscious of environmental and sustainability concerns. Sensor-based sorting proves to be an increasingly more important tool, both to formulate optimal solutions for greenfields projects and to help conquer challenges for keeping brownfields operations viable.

This seminar is geared towards mining industry professionals, process and project engineers, and academic participants and is designed to provide a solid, pragmatic foundation on sensor-based sorting projects. We have brought together a group of experienced and influential industry leaders to speak and answer your questions on all aspects of a sensor-based sorting operation, to help you convert your resource into value.

This seminar encompasses a broad range of topics including sorting technology, applications, plant design, economic considerations and more.
