TUNRA Bulk Solids Iron Ore Workshop – How to make materials handling decisions

As part of the Iron Ore Conference, TUNRA Bulk Solids will host a workshop on materials handling decisions.  A detailed understanding of material properties is crucial to ensure optimal performance in the handling chain. When it comes to iron ore, specific test methods are available to assess its quality from a materials handling perspective. This helps differentiate between “good” and “bad” materials based on factors such as internal strength, friction, and cohesion. Testing outcomes provide valuable data, which, when interpreted correctly, inform decision-making to ensure optimal performance under a range of conditions, optimizing design, processing and transport efficiency.

However, it is essential to recognize that the landscape of available deposits is constantly evolving. As we extract ore from new deposits, new challenges are encountered, driving innovation in handling, processing, and testing technologies. For further information on this workshop or to register
