Core Resources Geopyora rock breakage test

Core Resources Partnership With Geopyörä for Their Rock Breakage test

Core Resources is excited to announce a partnership with Finnish company Geopyörä to commercially offer their state-of-the-art rock breakage characterisation test to Core’s clients. 

The Geopyörä test is designed to allow mining companies to test large quantities of samples at low cost for geometallurgical, comminution design and control applications. Utilising small discrete samples from full or half one-metre sections of drill core or less than a kilogram of crushed rocks, this method integrates seamlessly with geochemical analysis, enhancing variability mapping – ideal for geometallurgical applications. 

Data measured by Geopyörä can accurately estimate standard comminution parameters and rock mechanical properties, including:

  • t10 Axb parameter

  • Energy and force distributions (i.e., probability of breakage)

  • Drop Weight Index (DWi)

  • Bond Work Index (BWi)

  • Point Load Test Strength Index (Is)

  • Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS)

This innovative approach allows more samples to be tested at a low cost, providing a better understanding of variability and minimising risks. 

For all your testing needs, please contact Core at [email protected].
