About G.E.T.T Gold. G.E.T.T Gold is active in the exploration and the development of gold resources in Quebec. G.E.T.T Gold also has an exclusive license for the Thermal Fragmentation mining method. The company’s growth strategy is based on: • The development of its gold deposit with the objective of producing revenue from its operations;
fragmentation assessment component was an essential part, were calculated to be a 5.5% reduction in longhole mining costs. Acknowledgments Orica Mining Services wishes to acknowledge the excellent co-ordination and dedication of resources from GBF and WMC at the St Ives Junction Gold Mine.
Based on the success of the existing suite of automated post-blast fragmentation monitoring solutions, Orica has developed FRAGTrack™ Crusher to meet growing demand from customers for downstream monitoring and optimisation solutions at every stage of the mining value chain.
FRAGMENTATION The key objective is to deliver a product that is broken well enough to maximise crusher throughput. That positions fragmentation as the main infl uence to performance of downstream activities in a mine. As a consequence, the profi t of a mining operation can be greatly improved through optimised fragmentation.
at WMC''s St Ives Junction Gold Mine while highlighting any financial benefits created from the change. Mining Issues The joint project was defined by GBF, WMC and Orica. The key mining issues were to: Minimise variables during the project Consider mine geology and drill patterns when
The use of the thermal fragmentation process constitutes a milestone for Mirabel since it will allow the mining industry to evaluate this technology and note its performances. Mirabel plans to move forward on a continuous basis with other projects of similar type in 2005. The method is suited to narrow vein gold deposits.
Mining activities, especially those using open-pit mining techniques, and oil and gas development projects often require clearing or fragmentation of large areas of land, with significant loss of plant and animal habitat as result.
Based on the success of the existing suite of automated post-blast fragmentation monitoring solutions, Orica has developed FRAGTrack™ Crusher to meet growing demand from customers for downstream monitoring and optimisation solutions at every stage of the mining value chain.
One of the inseparable parts of mining activities is blasting which one of its important outcomes is fragmentation. Fragmentation is the first result of blasting that is directly related to the mining costs. There are various methods for determining the degree of fragmentation which are divided into two groups, direct and indirect methods. Among direct methods, sieve analysis and, among

Canada-based junior gold miner Nippon Dragon Resources has developed a new, environmentally friendly mining method called thermal fragmentation, which uses heat to ''spall'' high-grade mineral veins. But what’s the real potential of this technology, and the challenges to instigating change in an industry struggling with profitability? Rod James finds out.
Exploring the Fragmentation of Activity Gold Mine: The Influence of ICT Use on Daily Activity Patterns. A popular notion in contemporary social science is that the Internet and other communication and information technologies (ICTs) facilitate the fragmentation of daily activities across times and spaces, thereby blurring the boundaries between the previously separated life domains of work
A current innovation in the mining industry, and in particular underground narrow vein mining, is the fragmentation of rock by use of extreme heat. While the use of thermal fragmentation in its current state is a new development, thermal spalling of rock has been in practice for over a century.
better fragmentation to be obtained at CUT 4 A-Zone pit, powder factor of 0.88 could be used. Keywords: Fragmentation analysis, loading and hauling, shovel loading time and cost estimated. 1 Introduction . Rock breakage is an essential part of the mining cycle and in hard rock, this is effected by drilling and blasting.
Fragmentation analysis boosts efficiency at Boliden mine. Swedish mining firm Boliden has said that fragmentation analysis and tracking technology developed by commercial explosives firm Orica enabled it to optimise bulk explosives use and measure post-blast results at its open-pit Kevitsa mine in Finland.

Achieving optimal fragmentation of the blasted rock is common task for mining engineers. During the years many models for fragmentation prediction were developed and are mostly based on empirical
Another recommendation is to narrow the blast pattern down to 3.5 m. by 4 m. so that fragmentation related issues are avoided which are currently to be expected for the continuing production in the Subika- and Awonsu Pit.

Nippon Dragon Resources, a pioneer of the innovative thermal fragmentation mining process, says it has begun transforming its flagship gold property Rocmec 1, in Quebec, Canada, into a dynamic mine through investments in exploration, development, infrastructure and equipment. In January, the company produced 1,000 t of mineralised material from

High industry fragmentation. The gold industry remains one of the most fragmented industries in the mining sector (Exhibit 3). The top five gold producers contribute less than 20 percent of the world’s total gold. In contrast, for most other metals, the top five producers make up between one-third and two-thirds of global production.

Measuring fragmentation. In the early to mid-1990s, Split Engineering developed technology and algorithms to measure online PSD at every stage from the mine to the mill: Split-Online.7 JKMRC found this to be a key tool in developing mine-to-mill strategies and validated the accuracy of the technology.8 The technology was first installed above conveyor belts and at the primary crusher truck

the Peruvian region of Amazonia, for example, gold mining and road construction significantly increased during 1999–2012, as only in 2008, they tripled the annual average of forest loss (Asner, Llactayo, Tupayachi, & Luna, 2013). Sonter et al. (2017) reported that mining-induced forest loss has extended to approximately 70 km from the
