The @SELFRAG_AG Lab electric pulse crushing system has a suite of safety features to protect the operator during treatment of materials using electricity.
Safe, contact, dust and contamination-free materials processing. Message us for a quote.

#MachineLearning in #MineralProcessing - unlike crushers and mills, the energy contained within an electrical discharge can be adjusted on the fly, allowing variable processing of ore on a minute by minute basis.

The Sound of [Rock] Music?
Rocks make different noises when they break, and we're using these sounds to predict how much they have broken in order to optimise #mineralprocessing equipment, saving #energy and #CO2.

Hello to our new followers! Here's an @Apple #iPhone we shot with lightning to break it apart for #recycling.
Phones contain valuable elements like #gold + #tin, and it's critical to the environment to try and recover these rather than send them to #landfill - #EPF can help!

On Saturday myself and Rob Chapman hosted a 'Career Pathways for Geoscience Graduates' event. Presentations covered advice for careers in exploration, ESG, finance and more! Thank you to our excellent speakers and our sponsors- @CornishLithium @RSCMME @AngloAmerican and Plethora.
Off to @UniversiteLiege to support their work in the recycling of #lithium ion batteries using high voltage electrical pulses!

Last ditch promotion for #zircon! Some more SEM images of grains separated by @SELFRAG_AG from the collection of @DrTMNZ and Co. Intricate microstructures and subgrains preserving a "shocking" history! #MinCup2020

Lundy granite vs. #SELFRAG, before & after.
Poor thing, didn't stand a chance
We've recently done some more mineral disintegration for the group at @IGE_Grenoble that published this work - follow us to see the results and get in touch for #contactless rock disintegration via #selfrag

Rapid disintegration of high-value samples for the best mineral recovery! We'd love to see the end result @Louise_ESE

Gorgeous #xenolith disintegration from @226radium a while back! Weak bonding between olivine and pyroxene means they fall apart and end up looking like crushed glass. Get in touch for #contactless crushing & mineral liberation

Clean liberated minerals via electrical disintegration enhance downstream separation, giving great concentrates fast.

Electrical disintegration of meteorites with caged lightning - minerals liberated intact with no temperature effects. Organise a trial here:
lightningmachines.com/contac…
We disintegrate rocks & recover intact minerals fast with electric pulse fragmentation.
Here we liberate shocked #apatite from the McKinney Meteorite with researchers from @EarthSciCam @PurdueEAPS and @SUERC1 using a @SELFRAG_AG System - perfect for small valuable samples.
New Blogpost - Do Miners Need to Market themselves Better?
Mining has an image problem, yet increasingly relies on the goodwill of the public to both conduct their operations, and to become future employees. What's going wrong?
