Pilot scale microwave infrared thermal (MW-IRT) sorting of porphyry copper ores is investigated.
- class="label">•
Pilot plant operating windows were defined from laboratory MW-IRT testing.

A larger sample size improves laboratory predicted copper recovery in the pilot plant.
- class="label">•
∼42–50% of pilot plant tests are predicted to within ±5% copper recovery and ∼85–90% to within ±10%.
