What this report found

Dense medium cyclones on the fine coal fraction lifted product yield well above the spiral circuit they were compared against and gave closer control of product quality. Cut point density control proved the hardest part of running the plant, medium properties being critical. Magnetic separator capacity had to match the duty, and a basement was needed to contain and recover medium spillage.

Collation of Historic Thermal Imagery

2008

Pilot exercise pulling scattered thermal survey datasets held by companies and research bodies into one mapping system, with a view to tracking coal fires and mine water discharge.

What this report found

Existing thermal imagery of the Witbank coalfield was traced to its holders and assessed for format, quality, resolution and coverage, then brought into one geographic information system with supporting metadata. Satellite thermal bands give a regional picture only; detailed mapping of coal fires or acid drainage discharge needs high resolution aerial surveys.
