JKSimFloat is widely regarded as the industry benchmark flotation modelling and simulation package. It streamlines tasks related to the mass balancing, modelling and simulation of flotation plants, making it easier for users to identify process bottlenecks and assess requirements for future throughput expansions.

Training has started at the new South Gobi Underground Mass Mining Institute (SGUMMI), which was established by mining company Rio Tinto and is managed by JKTech Pty Ltd, the knowledge transfer vehicle of The University of Queensland’s Sustainable Minerals Institute (SMI).

Professor Noppé has been appointed to the role of CEO by the board of JKTech, the technology-transfer company of the Sustainable Minerals Institute (SMI).

Ore control is a fundamental process in mining that involves the categorisation of materials to ensure each is directed towards its most economically beneficial use.

In plant trials, it is often the case that the effect of the variable being tested is camouflaged by other variables changing uncontrollably in the process.

Laboratory batch flotation test work is a mainstay in a metallurgist’s toolkit. Whether for ore characterisation or optimisation studies, determination (and comparison) of recoveries are typically the key objective.

JKTech has enhanced its flotation capabilities with the addition of specialist Thu Nguyen to the team.

An Excel app designed to give mineral processing practitioners an edge in a range of areas has been developed and released by JKTech.

JKTech is pleased to announce that Lachlan Kennelly, a mining engineer with extensive experience in value chain optimisation, has joined the team as Senior Drill & Blast Engineer.

JKTech has released a new case study focusing on a collaborative project undertaken with  Boyne Smelters Limited to identify strategies to improve the performance of their dry, fixed-speed autogenous mill.

The latest version of the award-winning, general-purpose computer software package JKSimMet is now available, providing users with a range of improvements and bug fixes.

Senior Process Specialist Tim Vizcarra examines the structure of JKTech's autogenous and semi-autogenous (AG/SAG) mill specific energy model in a new paper produced for the SAG23 Conference. 

JKTech is pleased to announce a new Senior Process Specialist has joined the team – experienced metallurgist Brendon Palmer.

JKMRC HDR Student and Glencore Project Metallurgist Ziming Ye has been named as the recipient of the inaugural Dan Alexander Memorial Award.

JKTech Pty Ltd is pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Rick Valenta to the role of Chief Executive Officer, and Mr Paul Napier as Chief Operating Officer.
