:: Sorting Low-grade Nickel Ores

Researchers in Canada have developed a sensor that has the potential to make low-grade nickel ore extraction more economically viable.

The high-frequency electromagnetic sorting system is aimed at sorting the ores at the pre-milling stage, and has been developed by BC Research Ltd, in collaboration with the University of British Columbia and Vale INCO Ltd.
