Elemental and phase analysis from bauxite to aluminium
BauxQ
Bauxite Quantitative Mineralogical Analysis
BauxQ - modern, cost-effective and easy to use software for automatic quantitative mineralogical analysis of bauxite.
- integrates a user-friendly interface with a complex mathematical modeling platform
- uses the elemental composition (obtained by XRF or ICP) and loss of mass on ignition to accurate calculate concentration of bauxite major and minor mineralogical phases
Bayer process parameters (gibbsitic alumina, kaolinitic silica) can also be obtained.
- does not require laboratory calibration and is independent from WCh and XRD analyses.
Given the speed of its analysis, it is particularly useful for assessing the commercial potential of new deposit
Given its accuracy, it greatly facilities mine exploration, exploitation, bauxite trade and Bayer plant operation.
