Thesis (MScEng (Process Engineering))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Previous work has shown that microwave heating of mineral ores induces micro cracks within the ore structure, which can be attributed to the difference in the adsorption of microwaves amongst the different mineral phases. This reduces the energy required during subsequent grinding and enhances the liberation of valuable minerals. In order to design microwave applicators for this purpose, knowledge of the effective dielectric properties of the crushed ore is required. Of particular interest is the

Abstract:
It has been established that porphyry copper/copper-gold deposits have formed from I Ma to 2 Ga ago. Generally, they are related to the Mesozoic-Cenozoic interval with few reported occurrences from the Palaeozoic or Precambrian. A reason cited is the erosion of these deposits which are often related to convergent plate margins and orogenic belts. Observations of the alteration and mineralisation within and around porphyry copper/copper-gold systems have been included in numerous idealised models. These alteration and mineralisation patterns are dependent on the phases of intrusion, the tectoni

Abstract:
Heap leaching is a metal extraction process from low grade ores where crushed ore is stacked on an impermeable pad and irrigated from the top with a solution of chemical reagents. An enriched solution containing the targeted metal is collected at the bottom. This technique involves complex chemical/electrochemical reactions and transport processes. Among the main features of this method of extraction include low capital and operative cost, modularity, and relatively high inventory of solutions.

While the production of copper metal from primary ores is still increasing, the gradual depletion of high-grade ores implies that the recovery of the metal from low-grade ores is presenting a challenge.

These other metals make the processing of such ores expensive due to the high cost of the leaching chemicals.

Abstract:
Accurate ore estimation processes are of crucial importance in the mining scenario. Over the last 20 years, one practical approach to improve ore grade estimation has encouraged the need to incorporate the geology of the ore deposit being estimated in the estimation process. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of the geology on the kriging estimation of the ore grade of a portion of a porphyry copper deposit. Preliminary data analysis demonstrates the need to perform a subsequent variogram modeling and kriging estimation of the ore grade by rock type separation. Global and

Abstract:
On etudie l'indice cuprifere de santa blandina (bresil) provenant de l'alteration d'un skarn porteur d'une mineralisation sulfuree a chalcopyrite et bornite. Les produits argilomorphes provoquent l'epigenie des mineraux du skarn et des solutions percolantes provoquent l'evolution mineralogique de ces produits. Les analyses mineralogiques et cristallochimiques determinent la nature exacte de ces phases argilomorphes et montrent la difficulte de l'incorporation du cuivre dans un reseau regulier d'argile
