Secondary Prospectivity
This webinar will provide an update of the Sustainable Minerals Institute's Mine Waste Transformation through Characterisation (MIWATCH) group's secondary prospectivity results in Queensland and highlight the importance of metal deportment and mineral characterisation studies to unlock value by making better metallurgical decisions.
Presentations will discuss how waste materials can be separated using new sorting and high voltage pulse technologies, and once minerals of interest are concentrated, how metals can be extracted to produce saleable critical metal products.
Finally, this webinar will provide an insight into how hyperspectral technologies can be used from the outset of a project to reduce environmental footprints to achieve better, long-term environmental outcomes.

About GSQ-UQ Webinar Series 2024
Welcome to the Geological Survey of Queensland and The University of Queensland (GSQ-UQ) 2024 webinar series, a collaborative series of webinar and workshops.
Jointly curated by GSQ and UQ's Sustainable Minerals Institute, the main goal of the series is to find new ways to support the minerals industry in Queensland, think about new techniques, and help define new and exciting targets.
