Why it matters
Chrome Spiralinto Recovery
As the global leader in chrome production, South Africa faces the pressing challenge of reliability in its fines processing operations. The industry demands robust equipment capable of enduring the abrasive nature of chrome extraction. Our advanced spirals excel in durability, efficiency, and reliability, outperforming competitors while maximising production in a smaller space. Embrace the future of chrome mining with our promise of enhanced longevity and profitability.
The Challenge
Tough onRough
Chromite processing faces many unique challenges arising from the high particle densities encountered, the erosive nature of the ore and the frequent presence of very fine particles that lead to clogging and reduced spiral efficiency. When these are combined with ore variations and product quality challenges an innovative approach to spiral design is needed to improve and maximise separation efficiency. Mineral Technologies embraces these challenges and produces the world-leading spiral designs you need for your operation.
Our Solution
MT Spirals
Our advanced spirals are engineered to provide consistent and reliable performance in chrome mining operations. Unlike traditional solutions that may falter under the abrasive conditions of chrome extraction, our spirals excel, offering unparalleled durability and efficiency. With our spirals, mining operators can trust in a reliable solution that minimises downtime and maximises productivity.
With over 40 spiral variations, speak to us about which spiral works for you, and kick things off with testwork in our own mineral lab.
Both our Australian and South African facilities are ISO 9001 certified.
The Advantages
Built forChrome
By improving recovery rates and ore grades, these spirals lower overall costs and boost profits, delivering a compelling return on investment with a smaller operational footprint.
Advanced spirals feature round outlet boxes that prevent common blockages, using HDPE piping to enhance durability and reduce maintenance, streamlining chrome extraction processes.
MD spirals are cost-effective, offering top performance and competitive pricing. Their robust, modular design minimises maintenance, reduces setup costs, and ensures flexibility. High recovery rates and low operational costs provide a high ROI, ideal for chrome recovery projects.
Every mining site is unique. Mineral Technologies offers customisable MT spirals tailored to specific ore characteristics and operational needs. Expert consultants ensure effective and robust solutions for efficient mining operations.
OutperformingIndustry Standards
MT spirals offer superior chrome recovery with a compact design that consumes less space in mines. This advanced technology enhances efficiency and sustainability in mineral processing.
