Milling is a major expense for mine operations and ultimately most of the material that passes through the plant is waste. Sorting out that waste before it gets to the mill can go a long way to improving the economics of an operation. Brent Hilscher of Sacre-Davey Engineering describes how some early adopters of sensor-based ore sorting have found big gains with this technology. 

This presentation is part of McEwen Mining’s Innovation Lunch and Learn Series, hosted at the company’s Toronto office.
