Laser analysis used for mining

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
As demand for minerals and other natural resources increases, so does the need for optimizing mining techniques. Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology has developed a laser analysis system that can identify potential mineral reserves. As part of the InnoNet project OFUR (Online Analysis for Minerals Extraction), funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology, the Fraunhofer researchers, in collaboration with the Institute for Mining and Metallurgy Machinery at RWTH Aachen University and seven partners from industry, have developed a demonstrator with an inline...Read full article
