Mining is among the sectors with the highest number of work-related fatal injuries in terms of ratio among total personnel in Turkey, and almost every stage of mining activities has high risk. Therefore, it is very important ...

Colemanite is a commercially prominent resource of boron, which is a critical raw material for sectors such as fiber optics, semiconductors, solar cells, etc. In the Bigadic Boron Plant, which is one of the important boron ...

In flotation enrichment, many of the host rocks that can be found in the ore structure can make the enrichment process quite difficult. Within the scope of this thesis, it has been tried to produce salable copper and zinc ...

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the possibility of increasing final concentrate grade by using column flotation at Eti Bakır A.Ş. Küre flotation plant. Since pyrite is the main gangue mineral in the concentrate, ...

Refractory gold-type ores are the mineralization where low gold recovery is obtained when subjected to direct cyanide leaching. In particular, the presence of gold in the lattice structure of sulfide/oxide minerals and ...

In this study; samples, collected at regular intervals from the second chamber of dry ball mills, were used to investigate the size reduction process occurring throughout the mill on an industrial scale by using different ...

Drilling and blasting operations in mining are essential processes that directly impact the operational efficiency and costs in open-pit mining. This thesis study investigates the effects of double priming applications in ...

In this thesis, it is aimed to investigate the use of µCT (Computed Micro Tomography) in mineral characterization and to compare the data obtained with conventional MLA (Mineral Liberation Analyzer) findings. In this ...

Within the scope of this thesis, the performance of high pressure grinding roller (HPGR), used as tertiary crusher in heap leaching operation, has been evaluated by using the operational parameters and the size distributions ...

The aim of the thesis is to examine the influence of employing dynamic search ellipsoids in resource estimation on the precision and dependability of estimations when confronted with complex geological structures. This is ...
