WIM Resource, a Horsham-based mineral sands exploration and mining company, which owns Avonbank Mine near Dooen, will have a new feature at this year’s Western Victorian Careers Expo – a unique mini spiral separator machine.
The machine demonstrates that by using water and gravity, heavy minerals can be efficiently separated from the mined sand.
WIM Resource community and stakeholder liaison officer Murray Wilson said WIM was proud to continue as major sponsor of the expo, a partnership now in its third year.
“Along with being able to showcase our unique model of a mineral sand separator spiral, we will also have an interactive stand showcasing the mineral sands industry, displays of everyday products derived from mineral sands, giveaways, project information and take-home materials,” he said.
