IMA Engineering Ltd (est. 1994) is focused developing and supplying technology, products and services for sampling and analyzing elements and minerals from ore and rock while processing. The IMA on-line analyzer technology is used in various stages of mining process for analyzing drill cores , drill cuttings, material on conveyor belt and in loader bucket. IMA’s “On-Line Mine” concept integrates analytical ore grade and geo-metallurgical information with ore location in benches, in muck-piles, in ROM pads and on conveyors with metallurgical data that that is fed forward to mill and concentrator for processing optimization and fed backwards to mine grade control and loading optimization.
