With the planned mining of a new ore body at the Al Jalamid site, in Saudi Arabia, Ma’aden Phosphate Company required a large and comprehensive test work program to define the geophysical and metallurgical characteristics of the new ore.
METS was engaged to develop test plans, coordinate with the laboratories and report results with interpretation.
The engineering specialists were involved in front end engineering design (FEED) for the Marillana Iron Ore Project in the Pilbara.
METS identified areas from the Definitive Feasibility Study ( DFS) that had risk associated which impacted plant utilisation, operability, efficiency of beneficiation and providing solutions to overcome these obstacles while ultimately achieving a final costing before execution.
The company used expert knowledge to develop the efficient mineral processing route needed to achieve throughput target for operations.
METS’ core business is founded on establishing long-term relationships with its clients, enabling the company to draw upon historical knowledge of specific project operations to derive the best possible solution outcomes.
