Often, poor plant performance is blamed on ore types being too soft, hard, or low-grade.

However, it is rare that we take a step back and question if this is really the case or if other factors are at play, such as inefficiencies in the plant.

Optimizing these areas can have significant effects on processing stability and profitability. Beginning with SmartTag™, a product that tracks ore from the mine to the plant, you can gain more insight for corrective action.

For some of the largest mine sites worldwide, the continuous use of SmartTag™ has resulted in improved reconciliation and blending, reduced dilution and ore loss as well as overall optimization of plant operations.

Join our Metso expert Michael Wortley, Global Manager for Metso PRO Sensor Products to learn how you can improve overall plant performance.

This webinar will focus on SmartTag™ technology, a variety of case studies and Metso's Process Optimization solutions.
