Minerals, Ore, and Mining Services

Due to the diversity and complexity of the forms of ore produced in nature, the mineral composition and crystallization state of various ores are different. Modern mining faces numerous operational challenges. Either from mineralogy or structural point of view, ore bodies are becoming more and more complex. Ore material analysis is crucial to ensuring the material is suitable for the intended end use.

When studying the properties of a certain mineral, it is necessary to know its elemental composition, such as silicon aluminum, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, phosphorus, and total carbon content. Because it helps to fully understand the minerals to be developed, and the environmental problems that may be caused by the compounds in the tailings pond. For example, tailings components and residual beneficiation agents have serious damage to the ecological environment, i.e., tailings contain heavy metals. It also can help the mine operators to adopt suitable mining processes, because each mineral needs to be treated differently by crushing, flotation or leaching. At the same time, it is also necessary to understand properties such as elastic modulus, expansion amount, expansion stress, chipping resistance index, firmness coefficient and compressive strength. For example, by identifying that the powder diffraction pattern of the sample is "correlated" with the powder diffraction patterns of known crystals, it is possible to determine which crystals are mixed and the composition of the mineral.

Matexcel provides reliable service and accurate results in mineral composition analysis, ore physical and chemical property testing, ore quality assessment, and metallurgical performance inspection. Matexcel’s experienced experts can help mining companies analyze the sample composition data of raw ore, concentrate and tailings. Our mineralogy laboratory aims to meet the ore characterization needs of mining companies. The minerals we analyze include, but are not limited to: Metal ore, rock-based non-metallic minerals, sandy non-metallic minerals, other mineral products, other non-metallic minerals, and stone products. Custom solutions are also available for specific types of ore. For more information, please contact us.
