In this study some drawbacks of using Bond grindability as a measure of grindability characteristics for mill control have been discussed. After reviewing the merits of alternative methods of determining the Bond grindability published in the literature, a new alternative method has been proposed.

Installation of spirals as roughers and scavengers in the gravity and regrind recovery circuits has allowed rejection of large weight fractions to tailings, thus contributing to increased mill capacity.

The Benambra deposits, which are regarded as volcanogenic in origin, may be subdivided into two major bodies, termed the Wilga and the Currawong deposits; these are further subdivided into smaller, more manageable units, based on composition and structure/spatial distribution.

My message to you today is simple. The mining industry in Australia has a proud record of successful research and innovation. If it is to continue to provide this country with its major exports that records must continue. I will endeavour to show that

Engineering of gold treatment facilities complete with infrastruc- ture in a remote location such as Papua NewòGuinea present unique problems to the design team. Site location, topography, ground conditions and infrastructure are some of the major hurdles to overcome when setting out on the design of such plants. This paper discusses two such plants, located in two distinctly different areas of Papua New Guinea and the solutions evolved in order to design successful operating facilities.

This paper attempts to put into perspective the implications of the legal disclosure requirements for promoters and consultants when making statements concerning ore resources and reserves. The need to take account of non-technical as well as technical factors is highlighted.

The increasing use of Ditch Witch trenching to define gold ore bound- aries in supergeme enriched near surface open cut mines has led to the consideration of using this technique for other sampling procedures. The use of Ditch Witch trenching for exploration has not been widely used and it is anticipated that the technique described will help stimulate more extensive use and new sampling techniques.

It is extraordinary that while Australia depends heavily on mineral wealth for its economic well-being, most Australians have no appreciation of the traditions and principles which drive and govern the mineral industry. Their understanding has been largely provided by those who campaign against the industry in one way or another and is therefore quite unrepresentative.
