Increasing demand for effective energy storage used in personal devices, electrical cars, renewable energy storage facilities, boosted the global demand for lithium.   Lithium-ion batteries are not the only industrial use of lithium (e.g. catalysts, lubricants, heat-resistant glass and ceramics, alloys for aerospace), but…READ MORE >

In the following case study, we discuss the added value of X-Ray Diffraction forprocess control at a sinter plant.

Before I start, this blog is NOT about how to be a great virtual grandparent since, in many European languages, OMA means grandmother. OMA stands for Ore and Minerals Analysis. Under this name, over the last five years, we have…READ MORE >

Ore and Minerals Analysis online events in 2020 The ever-popular series of Ore and Minerals Analysis (OMA) workshops are going online this year! Dr. Uwe König, Global Mining Segment Manager at Malvern Panalytical, explains what you can expect from these…READ MORE >

Accurate chemical analysis has long been integral to mining, from early exploration to mine development, ore sorting, extraction, and waste management.

One such group of minerals that the ASD TerraSpec Halo identifies and provides associated scalars for are the white micas.

Malvern Panalytical’s ASD TerraSpec® Halo mineral identifier is being used as part of today’s space race to return astronauts to the Moon, Mars, and beyond! The full-range (350-2500nm) portable spectrometer was recently selected and used in multiple research projects aimed…READ MORE >

Malvern Panalytical Brasil recently held the 10th Edition of the OMA (Ores and Minerals Analysis) Workshop, which took place in the Northeast in the city of Currais Novos / RN. In partnership with the IFRN the objective was to provide…READ MORE >
