  • Publication number: 20250041876
    Abstract: First measurement results are received from a characterization system in an ore processing plant. The first measurement results characterize a sample of mineral rotation feed. A first set of mineral characteristics of the sample of mineral rotation feed are determined based on the first measurement results. Respective similarities are determined between the first set of mineral characteristics and a plurality of predetermined sets of mineral characteristics that are each associated with one or more corresponding sets of rotation treatment parameters. A first set of rotation treatment parameters is selected based on the respective similarities. The first set of rotation treatment parameters is transmitted to a rotation processing system for separation of mineral components according to the first set of rotation treatment parameters.
