Drawing directly from the author??'s own pioneering research, and providing the unique viewpoint of physical metallurgy, this book examines structure and defect formation -- including macrosegregation and hot tearing -- that occurs during direct chill casting. This metallurgic viewpoint, not found in other volumes, is especially useful in connecting the fundamentals of structure formation with the practically observed structure and defect patterns found in billets and ingots. Each technology-centered chapter provides historical background before reviewing current developments. The conclusions are supported with computer simulation results that have been correlated with highly progressive experimental data. more...

Focuses on the advances in gold plant operation, from conception to closure. This book covers all unit operations, mineralogies and processes that are relevant to dealing with complex orebodies. The principle behind the structure of it is that of flowsheeting based on unit operations and applied to a mineralogical classification of gold ore types. more...
