IMA started ITERAMS in July in Boliden Kevitsa mine.
Sample collection for ITERAMS WP1 (Sample collection for other tasks and work packages) has started in cooperation between Boliden Kevitsa, Ima Engineering, Leoben University, and Oulu University. The team planned and executed the kick-off meeting and the first sampling campaign in Kevitsa Mine. The team studied Kevitsa Mine orebody mineralogy, and potential locations of suitable geo-polymer locations and then collected the first set of samples from blast benches and tailings area. Samples were then split and transported to Oulu.
What is IMA Engineering?
IMA Engineering has used on-line sensors for analyzing ore and waste rock in mining for over 25 years. Today IMA on-line sensors are used in various stages of the mining process including on-line analysis of drill cores, drill chips, ore, and waste in loader buckets, ROM ore analysis on conveyor belts and in bulk ore sorting, as well as slurry analysis in concentrators.
