Deep Collaboration - Collaborating Closely Within the Process

Lime and limestone are important chemicals for regulating various processes in the mining industry. Quicklime and slaked lime as well as ground limestone are used both in mills and for metal extraction.

Lime products are useful in keeping pH values at an optimal level, ensuring a high value yield from the mine. Mills often use lime milk made of quicklime or slaked lime for regulating pH values.

Lime products are also needed for treating unusable or superfluous process water, flood or rainwater before returning them to nature. Lime raises the pH value, thus coagulating metals diluted in the water into tailing areas. Limestone is often used in the construction of tailing areas and as a part of the cap after closing the mine. 

Furthermore, lime is an important product used in underground mining. Lime improves the stabilisation of fillers, strengthens filled constructions and reduces the risk of collapse.

Our versatile range of products along with our expertise is present throughout the process, from below ground through to refining.
