CIM Calgary Webinar – The Mount Polley Tailings Spill: Response & Recovery
VirtuallyJoin Lyn Anglin from Anglin and Associates to hear about the recovery from the tailings dam at the Mount Polley Mine 6 years later About this Event Six years after a glaciolacustrine layer under the tailings dam at the Mount Polley Mine failed, and 25 million cubic metres of water, tailings and embankment materials spilled […]
Young Person’s Lecture Competition 2021
The annual MinSouth heat of the Young Person's Lecture Competition (YPLC) will be held on Thursday, the 11th of March beginning at 6:00 pm. Two students from Imperial College (ICL) and three from Exeter University (CSM) will give 15-minute presentations on topics they have chosen and which are relevant to the materials and mining industries. […]
Mineral Characterization for Optimum Sensor-Based Sorting
VirtuallyInstallations of both bulk and particle sensor-based sorting (SBS) in the mining industry have increased significantly recently. However, SBS still lacks industry recognition as a pre-concentration technology. In addition to mineralogical characterization, different sensors and their performance parameters are key to understanding orebody heterogeneity characteristics exploited by SBS. Current SBS testwork is often hit-or-miss—or worse, […]

Video conference is done through Wonder. As their web page states: "Wonder is a space where you can connect to others in a more spontaneous and fluid way. You move around freely between groups. It's fun, creative and energizing. We call this concept fluid togetherness, we think it's the future of how people will connect […]
Implementation of Autonomous Systems in Mining Guideline V2 – Health and Safety, Regulations, and Workforce Community and Social Impact Workshop 1
VirtuallyAbout the project: The first version of the Guideline for the Implementation of Autonomous Systems in Mining is being used within the industry as a playbook for effective autonomous systems implementation, as a way to understand customer needs, and as an educational, communications, and operational tool. Version 2 will offer updated guidance and considerations on justifying, planning, developing, testing, […]

On the 8th of April, MinSouth will be hosting a lecture presented by ScotGold Resources Ltd to discuss its Cononish Gold and Silver Mine. The presentation will be by Richard Gray NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR - WITH EFFECT FROM 01 APRIL 2021 Mr Richard Gray has extensive international experience, in both underground and open pit mine operations, […]
Using Science to Maximize Sorting Efficiency
Recent implementations of sensor-based sorting have shown major positive impacts on mining economics. Maximizing sorting efficiency requires two linked pieces of information: particle size and particle grade. In addition to reducing downstream processing, particle sorting improves throughput of viable ore. In general, the coarser the size fraction, the easier the sorting and the greater the […]
MinSouth Snap – From Another Angle
Challenging the Orthodoxy of Traditional InSAR Ground Motion Surveys Over the last 20 years or so, Interferometric SAR (InSAR) has become an established method for measuring land motion from satellites and, since the advent of free data from remote sensing missions such as Sentinel-1, can be a very cost-effective way to support civil engineering and […]
