ZEISS Solutions for the Mining Industry

Mining in the 21st century is an increasingly challenging industry, with greater demands on scientific analysis than the mining operations of the last century. Remaining ore deposits are of lower grade, higher textural complexity and are under greater operational cost constraints. Due to increased geopolitical tensions and falling commodity prices, mining companies are seeking significant scientific validation to reduce the risk within the mine model before investing in mining projects. Moreover, once an operation is underway, it is essential that mineral processing flowsheets are optimized to maximize economic recovery and minimize losses. Increased mineralogical understanding is essential in order to address modern challenges across the entire mining value chain from exploration to refining. With the broadest portfolio of mineralogy and texture solutions for the mining industry and a rich history in geoscience, ZEISS is ideally suited to help you meet the challenge.
