From exploration through processing
Mining operations must improve efficiency and quality -- from exploration through processing -- in order to ensure profitability. From mineral analysis to complete bulk weighing, monitoring, and sampling systems, to informatics, you will find the latest equipment and technology for your mineral and metals, coal, cement, or oil and gas exploration and mining operations.
You'll also find solutions to help keep your coal, mineral, and cement operations healthier, cleaner and safer. Mining and processing ore and minerals is a dusty undertaking. You'll find information about monitoring moisture and controlling site dust. With increased and timely awareness of quarried material chemical composition, cement producers are able to significantly reduce the amount of wasted quarried materials and help lengthen the life of the quarry. Coal Workers’ Pneumoconiosis, more commonly known as black lung disease, is a devastating illness that can afflict anyone exposed to coal and crystalline silica dust. Using personal dust monitors, miners can report dust concentrations in real time and take immediate action to avoid excessive airborne dust levels that can injure lungs. And personal Gamma radiation monitors can detect, locate and identify radioactive sources commonly found in soil and rocks.
