Key points

  • Join Molycop for a full-day technical Masterclass marking the launch of OreVia – our advanced AI-driven process characterisation platform. 
  • OreVia provides real-time measurement and insight into ore behaviour through the processing circuit, enabling operators to optimise milling, flotation and leaching processes with greater accuracy and efficiency.
  • Presenters at this in-person event will bring their hands-on experience deploying OreVia and other Molycop solutions in mining operations worldwide.

Program

  • 08:00 – Registration and Networking Breakfast
    • Arrival, registration and welcome coffee.
  • 08:30 – 14:00 – Technical Masterclass Program
    • Technical presentations and case studies showing how OreVia measures and monitors ore characteristics from coarse rock, through milled slurry to flotation froth. Morning coffee and lunch will be served during the program. Learn how these insights improve process control, stabilise operations and enhance recovery.
  • 14:00 – Afternoon – Golf and Networking Activities
    • Informal golf session to network and discuss insights with Molycop technical experts and peers.
  • Post-Golf – Drinks and Canapés
    • Casual networking to conclude the day.
Participants will gain practical insights into OreVia’s capabilities:
  • Rock characterisation – real-time measurements of coarse ore for better feed control.
  • Slurry monitoring – tracking particle size distribution and flow properties during milling.
  • Froth analysis – monitoring flotation performance and stability for improved recovery.
  • Data-driven process optimisation – using real-time measurements to inform decisions and stabilise operations.
Attendees will see how OreVia turns measurement into actionable insights, helping operators optimise throughput, recovery and process stability across the mineral processing circuit.

Attendees will gain an understanding of OreVia’s real-time measurement and analytics capabilities, plus practical strategies to improve process control and recovery. They will explore case studies demonstrating measurable plant performance improvements, and gain an opportunity to discuss site-specific challenges with Molycop experts.
