Eco Metals Recovery

32 EMR, SMART MINING AND R&D • Part of the EMR offering is accessing the smart mining market and opportunity. • In 2016, the global smart mining industry had a market value of some $6.8 billion. By 2025, it is projected to have a market value of $16.3 billion . • In order to access the smart mining opportunity, EMR are working with a major UK university which has a preeminent reputation in mining, data science and AI. EMR will integrate these technologies into the core functions of the Separator and its associated systems. Value of the smart mining market to 2025 “Our University R&D Partner is a world-class combined mining school and geoscience department, rich in history and culture for over 125 years.Their research covers a range of geoscience subjects, and focuses on many key areas including intelligent mining, efficiency and safety, and sustainable mining.” • Lidar and hyper spectral imaging • Advanced sensors • Artificial Intelligence, and robotics in the assessment and sorting stages • Roller contact angle efficiency and flow patterns for best results • Various alloys used for contact bars increased sensitivity and wear results • Testing impedance values to increase selection criteria and specific separation. • Capture speed and control improvements • Wear improvement, sealing options and durability testing for abrasive conditions • Second stage metals sorting methodology • A.I data point integration and sensing and reporting techniques • Possible: Block Chain collaboration on entry data points and certification EMR will sponsor mining-focused R&D at with our university partner, targeting: $16.25 Billion
