Mineral Processing
Crushing, screening, processing
Fraser Alexander’s mineral processing service operates and maintains a range of processing facilities and provides metallurgical, engineering and quality management services associated with mineral beneficiation.
Our mineral processing service offering covers the entire coal processing value chain and includes crushing and screening, heavy medium separation, gravity separation, fine coal treatment, thickening, flotation and filtration as well as agglomeration of ultrafine coal.
We Offer:
Coal Wash Plants
Currently Fraser Alexander own and operate the highest number of coal wash plants of any independent contracting company in South Africa, including the largest individual plant.
The modular plant’s capacities range in size from 50tph to as much as 500tph.
The modules can either be combined in parallel for additional capacity or fractional washing or in series for inline secondary washing.
Filter Presses
Furthermore, we operate and maintain our own filter presses (instead of outsourcing) and run the only operational fine coal dense-medium plant in the world. The modular plants can accept run-of-mine coal as well as discard dump coal for re-washing as feed to plant – in this way extracting further value out of discard dumps.
By washing the coal, Fraser Alexander provides a clean product for its clients, who sell to different low- and high-grade export markets as well as domestic thermal and metallurgical markets.
