Overview

The complexity of ore bodies in the country has required an equally complex processing technology for extraction and purification such that specifications for nickel, copper, and gold among other metals for downstream industries are still satisfied. Furthermore, secondary metal resources such as electronic wastes are also getting much attention for the recovery of valuable metals like gold and copper. Metallurgical engineers pursuing graduate studies can pursue research and development so that special parameters for the above mentioned systems can become feasible and profitable.
