A ROADMAP FOR MINERALS PROCESSING EDUCATION
Research and Development Programs
Mineral processing groups have been developed by many large R and D
organisations to meet the needs of industry where the existing infrastructure
does not provide specialist minerals processing and extractive metallurgy
hubs – these institutions are all contributing to research in the discipline
and in several cases also working in partnership with the Universities
mentioned above.
