To illustrate the impact of our laboratory services, let’s look at a recent project with a customer from Colombia. This mining company was considering investing in new equipment to process a promising mineral deposit. However, before making such a significant investment, they wanted to ensure they had a comprehensive understanding of their ore’s composition and the best processing methods.
 
Step 1: Initial Consultation and Sample Collection
The Colombian miner reached out to Dasen Mining to discuss their needs. Our team recommended sending representative samples of their ore to our laboratory for thorough testing and analysis. We guided them through the sample collection process to ensure the samples were as representative as possible.
 
Step 2: Comprehensive Testing and Analysis
Once the samples arrived at our laboratory, our team of expert experimenters conducted a series of tests to determine the elemental content and mineralogical composition of the ore. The tests included:
 
Gravity Separation: To assess the potential for gravity-based concentration methods.
Flotation: To evaluate the floatability of the valuable minerals.
Leaching and Cyanidation: To determine the efficiency of gold recovery through these processes.
Magnetic and Electric Separation: To explore the possibility of using these methods for further concentration.

Step 3: Data-Driven Decision Making
The results of the tests provided the Colombian miner with detailed insights into their ore’s characteristics. Our engineers analyzed the data and provided a comprehensive report that included:
 
Elemental Composition: Detailed information on the minerals present and their concentrations.
Process Recommendations: Tailored advice on the most effective processing methods based on the test results.
Equipment Selection: Guidance on selecting the right equipment to achieve optimal results.
Armed with this data, the miner was able to make a well-informed decision about their equipment purchase, confident that they were investing in the right technology for their specific needs.
 
Step 4: Reduced Investment Risk and Optimized Operations
By leveraging the accurate and reliable data from our laboratory, the Colombian miner was able to:
 
Minimize Investment Risk: The detailed analysis allowed them to avoid costly mistakes and invest in equipment that was perfectly suited to their ore.
Optimize Processing Efficiency: The tailored process recommendations led to improved recovery rates and operational efficiency.
Enhance Profitability: The combination of reduced risk and optimized operations resulted in a more profitable venture.
