FLOWSHEET DEVELOPMENT:

PATFIO consultants are unparalleled in their ability to identify the perfect flowsheet for your project. Through meticulous examination of the ore body, mining schedule, and processing requirements, they meticulously model and assess all feasible flowsheet options, ultimately providing recommendations for the most efficient circuit configuration. These assessments typically emphasize efficiency alongside capital and operational costs. Leveraging proprietary modeling techniques developed for design, PATFIO utilizes test work derived from drill core or whole rock samples to size circuits, facilitating a comparison of alternatives to determine the optimal path forward. An engineering design brief is meticulously crafted, outlining the circuit description, process flow diagrams, mass balance, and essential equipment selections that constitute the foundation of the selected flowsheet. PATFIO boasts extensive expertise in process design across a wide range of commodities, including gold, nickel, copper, cobalt, lead, zinc, rare earth elements, platinum group metals, iron ore, uranium, phosphates, and mineral sands.
