• COMPANY OVERVIEW
Mintek is an autonomous research and development organization specializing in all aspects of mineral processing, extractive metallurgy and related technology. It was originally established as a mineral research laboratory by the government of SA in 1934. Mintek develops and transfers new technology to industry for processing, extraction, refining and utilizing minerals and mineral products. This company offers research and development expertise, service test work, and technologies for the Gold, Platinum group metals(pgm’s), base metals, ferro -alloy and the industrial sector using extensive laboratory and pilot plant facilities available for investigations. The investigations are carried out in the following field: mineral …show more content…

• PLANT/LAB SAFETY
Personal protective equipment is used as a temporary protection for workers against hazards, this depend on the work conditions and process being performed. Mintek requires the staff to wear their personal protective equipments when working and also walking in certain areas. This includes safety glasses that protects the eyes from the chemical liquids, hard hat which protect head from falling material, ear protection that protect ear from excessive noise, gloves that protects the hands, clothing or work-suits which protect skin from toxic and footwear that protects the feet.
• SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
Mintek is one of the world’s leading technology organization specializing in mineral processing, pyro-metallurgy E.T.C., with a great mission of serving its own stakeholders by adding value to the mineral resources through technology, industrial growth and human development in a sustainable manner. Rheology tests for Mopani copper were required to determine the rheological properties of slurries at ambient temperature and different shear …show more content…
The three measuring systems include the cup and bob geometry, the double gap (concentric cylinders) geometry as well as the vane geometry. The double gap geometry is normally used to measure the viscosity of dilute slurries that settle very quickly, the vane geometry is used for concentrated slurries that do not settle easily (where a value of the yield stress is usually required), for this tests the bob and cup geometry was used for measurements at intermediate solids
