Mining Technology Partners Podcast

Andrew Bailey, CEO of the Mineral Exploration Cooperative Research Centre (MinEx CRC) joins us to discuss the objectives and projects. MinEx CRC is the world´s largest mineral exploration collaboration bringing together industry, government and research organizations backed by a total of $218M in funding. Andrew tells us about the organization and discusses MinEx CRC´s current initiatives and Education & Training program. Project 1 Drilling Optimization: “What are we getting out of the ground in current drilling and what is the future of drilling?” This research program is built on a simple premise: that cheaper, more productive, safer and environmentally friendly drilling will lead to more meters drilled, which will deliver more discoveries and reduce the cost of developing those discoveries. https://minexcrc.com.au/program-one-drilling-technologies/ (https://minexcrc.com.au/program-one-drilling-technologies/) Project 2 Data from Drilling This program will develop technologies for capturing geochemical, petrophysical and seismic data either during drilling or within the drilling workflow.  The program will also deliver software that will enable drilling data to be integrated into 3D geological models in real-time, delivering timely data to inform decisions on drill holes during drilling. https://minexcrc.com.au/program-two-data-from-drilling/ (https://minexcrc.com.au/program-two-data-from-drilling/) Project 3 National Drilling Initiative The National Drilling Initiative (NDI) will manage and deliver drilling programs in multiple case study areas proposed by MinEx CRC’s partner geological survey organizations.  The NDI vision is to drill multiple holes in a region to map the regional geology and architecture and define the potential for mineral systems in 3D. https://minexcrc.com.au/program-three-national-drilling-initiative/ (https://minexcrc.com.au/program-three-national-drilling-initiative/) MinEx CRC’s Education & Training (E&T) program will have a critical role in the development of next-generation mineral exploration skills in PGR (postgraduate research) and Vocational Education and Training (VET) students.

Dirk Treasure, CEO of Chrysos Corporation joins us to explain the company’s PhotonAssay technology. Developed by Australia’s national science agency CSIRO (https://www.csiro.au/en/News/News-releases/2018/X-rays-map-the-path-to-hidden-gold) and brought to market by Chrysos, photon gold analyses is a faster, safer and more environmentally-friendly alternative to the conventional fire assay technique for gold analysis. Fully automated, PhotonAssay dramatically reduces the turnaround time on assays from days to minutes, providing critical data to miners on gold grades in near real-time to support operational decisions. The PhotonAssay can be taken to remote sites or the laboratory and is seen as a technology with a competitive return on investment that will increase gold recovery for mines all over the world. Dirk explains how this powerful system detects gold in low PPB, requires little or no sample preparation and has a high, automated sampling rate without the disadvantages of other techniques. Links, how to get in contact and more information: A technical paper describing Chrysos’ PhotonAssay technology has been published in the journal “Applied Radiation and Isotopes” (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0969804316307667?via%3Dihub) .

On today´s Episode 6 we have Edine Bakker of the La Palma Research Centre in Spain talking about project VAMOS, the Viable Alternative Mine Operating System. VAMOS will enable access to mineral deposits and reserves in greater depths using a robotics system for clean, low visibility underwater mining with limited environmental impact. Currently unreachable mineral deposits will soon be accessible. VAMOS is an EU-funded project that is developing equipment for underwater mining of inland deposits. It is a new method for safe, clean, and low-impact mining and has the potential to reopen abandoned mines, extend existing open-pit mines and open new mines, with the ultimate aim of reducing the EU’s reliance on mineral raw material imports. Economical benefits: Lower stripping ratio achievable: less waste material No need for dewatering Primary crushing costs removed: material already crushed to

Episode 3 – Mar. 6, 2018 PDAC 2018 Edition Guest: Dr. Rolf Fandrich, CSIRO Reflexivity Group From the CSIRO stand at PDAC 2018 Convention South Tradeshow floor in Toronto, Dr Fandrich shares CSIRO´s approach to innovation and the CSIRO Trust Model that characterizes the relationship between a community and the mining operation they live alongside. Using community surveys, the Reflexivity Group can deliver the top 5 things most important to a community and hence significantly improve understanding between company and community. Dr. Fandrich also tells us about their experience of ON, CSIRO’s (Australia´s national research provider) science and technology accelerator ( http://oninnovation.com.au (http://oninnovation.com.au/) ) and the Lean Launch Program, a tool to help researchers turn their discoveries into sustainable products and services that solve real world problems. CSIRO´s Reflexivity Group developed a data service, called Reflexivity to provide community members with a way to be heard by the resource companies that work alongside them. It also helps companies understand what their communities think about them and why, providing tangible opportunities for building greater trust in those relationships. Innovation:  CSR “CSIRO has developed a way to give communities a direct voice into companies that operate alongside them. Our approach enables a dynamic interaction between company and community that aims to increase understanding on all sides, build trust, and strengthen relationships. It builds upon knowledge gained from tens of thousands of community interactions in 9 countries and associated research over the past decade. In 2017, Rio Tinto Iron Ore engaged CSIRO for a three-year project to apply the Reflexivity approach with communities in the Pilbara region in North Western Australia. The project is called Local Voices. Local Voices will provide the communities neighbouring Rio Tinto’s operations in the Pilbara a direct voice inside the company, and help the company engage with the issues that matter most to these communities”.
