All for the Mining Industry
Mining Chemicals
Leveraging our extensive experience and procurement expertise, we consistently provide the highest value to our customers.
Our products are “above and beyond” industry standards, and we have no peers when it comes to service excellence.
ALT NOWATA deliver innovative solutions not only for today’s mineral extraction challenges but also for mining of the future. The business offers a full service model as part of a value-added offering that incorporates not only chemical solutions but also equipment installation at brown or greenfield projects.
ALT NOWATA adds value in the beneficiation of primarily PGMs, diamonds, coal, gold, uranium and base metal ores. Most our products are used in the froth flotation and tailings treatment sectors of the mining industry. The portfolio includes specialty liquid thio mineral collectors, mineral froth formation chemicals, unwanted gangue mineral depressants, polyacrylamide thickening polymers and tailings polymeric rheology modifiers.
The equipment we provide optimises reagent make-up, removes the need to handle the product on-site, negates the requirement for warehousing and removes costs associated with the disposal of packaging materials such as bulk bags, shrink wrapping and pallets.
This full service model is enabled by environmentally responsible investments in expertise, processes and products as ALT NOWATA’ product range continues to lead the way in meeting the increasingly complex needs of mines throughout the world.
The service offering includes:
- flocculant dosage optimisation through dosage control equipment
- flocculant inventory monitoring remotely by telemetrics for in-time deliveries
- bulk flocculant deliveries by pneumo dispatcher with no physical handling
- periodic settling tests and flocculant screening
