Abstract
Bulk ore sorting (BOS) has the potential to reduce processing costs and improve mine economics. A factor that impedes its acceptance is the lack of a method to assess ore amenability to sorting. In this study, a fractal model of metal distribution was used to assess an ore’s bulk sortability. A BOS model was developed where metal distribution properties were characterised, optimum cut-off grade for sorter operation was determined, and economic...
