20.go to top of page[ID=270659]Zinc Processing '10 — 2nd International Symposium on the Processing of Zinc Ores and Concentrates
08 Nov 2010 → 09 Nov 2010; Cape Town, South Africa

abstract: This, the 2nd International Symposium on the Processing of Zinc Ores and Concentrates (Zinc Processing '10), is organised by Minerals Engineering International.

Primary zinc production is complicated by the fact that sphalerite is usually associated with economic amounts of lead and copper minerals, and is often contained in a gangue high in pyrite. The complex intergrowths often mean that very fine grinding is required, followed by selective flotation.

Some of the most important developments which have taken place in minerals engineering in recent years have involved the treatment of these ores and in the subsequent extraction of zinc from concentrates.

Papers are invited on all aspects of the processing of zinc ores and concentrates, including:

- Production of zinc concentrates and the associated problems encountered in comminution and flotation due to the complex mineralogy of Pb-Zn, Cu-Zn and Cu-Pb-Zn deposits.
- Treatment of zinc concentrates by hydrometallurgical, biohydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical routes.
- Environmental issues associated with the treatment of the ores and concentrates.

topics: minerals, processing, engineering, mining, metals, zinc

24.go to top of page[ID=309028]CCMI '11 — Climate Change and the Minerals Industry '11
11 May 2011 → 12 May 2011; Falmouth, United Kingdom

abstract: We currently face a public debate on climate change. On one side stand those who oppose the mere notion of man-induced climate change. On the other there is a strong faction that, in its extreme, prophesises a near-future 'doomsday'. In the middle stands a community that would like to see a sound discussion and actual proofs going beyond unproven climate modelling.

It would be naive to think that modern industrialised societies play no part in climate change. The minerals industry is one of the largest producers of carbon dioxide, and the need to reduce emissions, coupled with the global recession, is having a huge economic impact.

Until it is proven whether climate change is human-induced or not, legislation and common-sense demand that carbon emissions be reduced, particularly from high CO2 producers such as the minerals industry.

25.go to top of page[ID=309005]Risk '11 — Risk-Based Approaches to Major Decisions
13 May 2011 → 14 May 2011; Falmouth, United Kingdom

abstract: This, the 1st International Symposium on Risk-Based Approaches to Major Decisions (Risk '11), is organised by Minerals Engineering International in association with RMRI.

Risk management is a vital decision-making tool in modern industry and commerce. Since virtually every decision involves some element of uncertainty, and because there are risks inherent in most of the key issues facing companies today, the ability to understand risks and manage them effectively is an important ingredient for success. This is particularly true when assessing complex and large scale decisions where considerable capital is involved.

In such cases, risk-based approaches have been shown to be highly effective because they enable decision makers to make informed management choices based on structured information and analysis and to demonstrate the basis of their decisions.

This conference will look at areas in the construction, management and operation of large scale assets where adopting a risk-based approach to decision-making offers advantages in terms of both reduced risks and commercial benefit. Novel areas of application will be discussed and innovative techniques that are demonstrably cost effective will be introduced.
