“Advanced Excel VBA For Engineers and Scientists” Short Course
More than 90% of quantitative professionals (inclusive of engineers, scientists and analysts) use Excel at a basic level. Yet possibly less than 10% would have received any guidance on how to use Excel effectively. Hence many professionals use Excel in a manner that much of their work is not shared effectively with their colleagues leading to a significant loss in productivity. Indeed there are ‘Horror stories’ where poor Excel management has lead to millions of dollars in direct losses through…

In order to optimize a mineral processing plant there are nine steps required: 1. Collect data (measurement) 2. Collate data (into a database) 3. Flowsheeting 4. Mass Balance 5. Inference 6. Determine Operational Parameter 7. Model fit 8. Simulate 9. Optimize Mass balancing is often taught using least squares minimization. Inference is generally not taught and in the absence of inference, model fitting is rendered very difficult, which is why mineral processing simulation is generally much more difficult than it…

The metallurgical testwork program is generally the most important critical path item for process design of a circuit and if it is not implemented in a well-structured and framed way by an experienced subject matter expert it can become the main reason of a mining project fatal flow. Not two ore bodies are the same. Although development of a suitable process flowsheet to treat an orebody appears to be a relatively straightforward, selecting the optimum process whilst maintaining the maximum…
