Conference Proceedings
First Extractive Metallurgy Operators' Conference
The intention of the Conference was to provide a forum for extractive metallurgy operators to discuss and present experiences in dealing with real processing issues and their solutions. The three main aims of the Conference were:
to exchange practical information to assist operators in improving their plant's day to day performance;
to introduce new processing concepts and stimulate debate about how to improve the industry generally; and
to review past performance on the
implementation of projects from an operator's perspective with the aim of
identifying what was done well and what needs to be done better in the
future.
All papers were peer reviewed prior to publication in accordance with The AusIMM guidelines to ensure the presentation and technical content is maintained at a high standard. We are confident that the conference volume will serve as a valuable source of information for those seeking to understand and to further improve plant performance.
