This workshop on Sampling, Lab Analysis and Grindability Testing is ideal for Lab Technicians. The online training modules for these topics typically takes about 13.5 hours to complete. To deliver this training within the one-day time frame, we will assign certain module topics as “prep-work” to be completed before the workshop with the remainder covered live in class.
- Module 10 – Existing & Required Data
- Module 11 – Plant Sampling Guide & Circuit Surveys
- Module 12 – Sample Handling & Analyses
- Module 13 – Introduction to Grindability Testing
- Module 14 – Bond Grindability Tests
- Module 15 – Batch Grindability Tests
- Two weeks prior to the workshop, each registered attendee will be provided with a Metcom on-line training account to access all materials covered in the workshop. A guide will also be provided highlighting the specific materials that should be reviewed prior to the workshop.
Plant Mets would also benefit from learning about how to carry out survey sample collection campaigns and grindability testing. This fits nicely with the CSE workshop, where attendees learn about measuring and improving grinding efficiency. This additional workshop covers the details on how to obtain the needed data.
Participants should bring their laptop and a hand-held calculator.
