Ukutholwa kwezinsalela zemaminerali sekubaluleke kakhulu embonini yezimayini ngenxa yezinselele zemvelo kanye nokubaluleka kwezomnotho okuhambisana nokuphathwa kwezinsalela. Izinsalela zemaminerali yizinto ezichotshoziwe ezisele ngemuva kokukhipha amaminerali anenani ezintweni ezimbiwayo. Lezi zinsalela zivame ukuba namaminerali asele futhi zingaba nezingozi ezinkulu zemvelo uma zingaphathwa kahle. Ukutholwa kahle kwamaminerali ezinsaleleni akunciphisi izingozi zemvelo kuphela kodwa futhi kuthuthukisa ukusetshenziswa kwezinsiza, okufaka isandla ekusebenzeni kwezimayini okusimeme. I-Alicoco Mineral Technology Co., Limited isezingeni eliphakeme ekuthuthukiseni izixazululo ezintsha ezibhekana nalezi zinselele, isekela imisebenzi yezimayini ukuthi ithole amaminerali amancane kakhulu alahlekile ngesikhathi sokucubungula kwendabuko.

Ukuvuselelwa kwezimbiwa emadoti kubhekene nezinselele eziningi ezisukela kwezobuchwepheshe kuya kwezemvelo. Amadoti ezimbiwa, ikakhulukazi amadoti ezinsimbi, avame ukuqukethe izinhlayiya ezincane kakhulu okunzima ukuzivuselela ngezindlela ezijwayelekile. Emhlabeni wonke, ukukhiqizwa kwamadoti ezimbiwa kuningi kakhulu, kunezinkulungwane zamathani akhiqizwa minyaka yonke, okudala izinkinga ezinkulu zokugcina nokungcola. Ukulahlwa okungalungile kwamadoti kungaholela ekungcolisweni kwamanzi, ukubola komhlabathi, nokuphazamiseka kwezimvelo. Ukugcina amazinga emboni nemithetho kubalulekile ukunciphisa imiphumela enjalo, kodwa imisebenzi eminingi yokumba ibhekana nobunzima nezindleko zezinqubo zokuvuselelwa ezisebenzayo. Ukuzibophezela kwe-Alicoco ekusimameni kugcizelela ukuhlangabezana nalezi zingqikithi ngenkathi kuthuthukiswa ukusebenza kahle kokuvuselelwa.

I-Alicoco Mineral Technology Co., Limited isungule ubuchwepheshe obusezingeni eliphezulu obuklanyelwe ukuthuthukisa ukubuyiswa kwezinsalela zamaminerali. Izinhlelo zabo ezinelungelo lobunikazi zezimbazo zokuhlunga kanye nobuchwepheshe bokuhlukanisa ngamandla omzimba banikeza izinqubo eziphumelelayo kakhulu zokubuyisa amaminerali amahle kakhulu angavuthiwe avame ukulahleka ezinsaleleni. I-Alicoco ibambisana eduze nemisebenzi yokumba izimayela, yenze izixazululo ezenziwe ngendlela efanele ezikhulisa ukubuyiswa ngenkathi kuncishiswa iminye imiphumela emibi kwezemvelo. Ngokubhekana nezimbangela zokulahleka kwezinsalela, ubuchwepheshe be-Alicoco buvusela izinsalela kusuka ezintweni ezilimaza imvelo zibe izinsiza eziyigugu, zihambisana nezinjongo zokuzinza zomhlaba wonke.

Ukuphiliswa kwamaminerali kusuka emadakeni kubandakanya izindlela eziningana ezithuthukile, ngayinye ilungele izici ezihlukahlukene zamaminerali nezomzimba. Izinqubo zomzimba ezifana nokuhlukanisa ngamandla omzimba (gravity separation), ukuntanta (flotation), kanye nokusetshenziswa okuthuthukisiwe kwezitebhisi ezijikelezayo (spiral chute) kuvame ukusetshenziswa. Ukuhlukanisa ngamandla omzimba kusebenzisa umehluko ekuminyeni kwamaminerali, okuvumela ukuhlukaniswa kwamaminerali anenzuzo kusuka emadakeni ngokusetshenziswa okuncane kwamakhemikhali. Ukuntanta kusetshenziselwa ukuphiliswa kwamaminerali ngokushintsha izakhiwo zendawo yawo, kudale umhluzi ocebile ngamaminerali anenzuzo. Izixazululo ze-Alicoco zivelele kakhulu ekuphilisweni kwamaminerali amahle kakhulu alahlekile ezitebhisini ezinyakazayo noma ezinhlelweni zezitebhisi ezifakwe umuzwa. Imikhiqizo yabo ithuthukisa amazinga okuphiliswa, yehlisa ivolumu yemfucumfucu, futhi ikhuthaza ukugaywa kabusha kwamaminerali anenzuzo angahlala emadakeni.

U-Alicoco ubambe iqhaza emisebenzini eminingi ehlose ukuthuthukisa ukusebenza kokutholwa kwezinsimbi ezisale emgqeni. Le misebenzi ihlanganisa ubudlelwano nezinkampani ezihamba phambili zezimayini ukuze kusebenze futhi kuthuthukiswe ubuchwepheshe be-Alicoco bokudlulisa izinto ngezigxobo nokuhlukanisa ngezisindo emisebenzini yangempela. Ngokwabelana ngolwazi kanye nentuthuko yezobuchwepheshe, le misebenzi yokubambisana ikhuthaza ubuhlakani futhi isheshisa ukwamukelwa kwezindlela zokumbiwa kwezimayini ezisimeme. Umlando oqinisekisiwe we-Alicoco ekuphathweni kwezinsimbi ezahlukahlukene, okubandakanya izinsimbi ezisale emgqeni, ugcizelela ukusebenza kahle kwendlela yabo kanye nendima yabo ekuguquleni ukuphathwa kwezinsimbi ezisale emgqeni emhlabeni jikelele.

Ikakhwezi lezinsalela zemigodi lithembisa kakhulu, lishukunyiswa ukwanda kwemithetho yezemvelo, izikhuthazo zezomnotho, kanye nentuthuko yezobuchwepheshe. Ukuzibophezela kwe-Alicoco emikhubeni yokumba esimeme kugcizelela ukuphathwa okungcono kwezinsalela okunciphisa imithelela emvelweni ngenkathi kwandisa inzuzo yezomnotho kusuka emamineralini alulame. Izinqubo zokululama ezisebenzayo zinciphisa isidingo sokukhipha umhlaba omusha, zigcine izinsiza zemvelo, futhi zinciphise izindleko zokusebenza. Njengoba imboni yokumba iqhubeka nentuthuko, izixazululo ezintsha ze-Alicoco zibeka bona njengabadlali ababalulekile ekuthuthukiseni ukucubungula amaminerali okusimeme nokunenzuzo.

Ngokuphetha, i-Alicoco Mineral Technology Co., Limited igqama njengomholi ekuthuthukiseni ukubuyiswa kwezinsalela zemaminerali ngobuchwepheshe obusha, obunobungani nemvelo. Ukugxila kwabo ekubuyiseni amaminerali amahle kakhulu kusetshenziswa izindlela zomzimba kuxazulula izinselele ezinkulu zemboni ngenkathi kuthuthukiswa ukunakekelwa kwemvelo. Izinkampani zezimayini ziyakhuthazwa ukuthi zamukele lezi zindlela ezithuthukisiwe zokubuyisa ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukuzinza nokwenza inzuzo. Ngeminye imininingwane mayelana nobuchwepheshe be-Alicoco nezixazululo zabo eziphelele zezimayini, vakashela iwebhusayithi yabo kuIkhaya ikhasi noma ufunde kabanzi Mayelana Nathi. Ukuze uthole imibuzo nezingxoxo ezengeziwe, sicela uthinte i-Alicoco nge-Xhumana Nathi ikhasi.
