Pumping Success: Surface Dewatering Pumps
Pumping Success: Surface Dewatering Pumps
Surface mine dewatering pumps may not be particularly glamorous, but they are essential. North American Mining magazine talked to three experts about the most important factors impacting pump selection and performance. By Jonathan Rowland Dewatering pumps “play a critical role in all mining operations and are therefore among the most important equipment in a mine,”
Slurry Pumps

Sustainable Slurry Pumps
As the mining industry seeks long-term economic and environmental sustainability, energy use, water consumption, and material efficiency are top concerns. How do these topics relate to slurry pumps? North American Mining asked a group of experts from leading pump manufacturers for their views. by Jonathan Rowland The mining industry is at a pivotal juncture. Amid
Issues in Slurry Pump Maintenance
Issues in Slurry Pump Maintenance
Slurry pumps face very challenging operating conditions. An effective maintenance regime is thus critical for keeping them – and with them, the rest of the mine – performing as well as possible. We asked experts from Weir Minerals and KSB SupremeServ-GIW for their insight into some of the key issues. By Jonathan Rowland Slurry pumps
Let’s Talk About Slurry Pump Wear
Let’s Talk About Slurry Pump Wear
Handling slurry inevitably exposes equipment to wear. The question is thus how to manage and minimize that wear. North American Mining spoke to four experts about issues in slurry pump wear protection. By Jonathan Rowland Introduction: the three types of wear There are three main categories of wear to which a slurry pump may be
Valves and Pipelines in Slurry Pump Transportation
Valves and Pipelines in Slurry Pump Transportation
Slurry transportation systems rely on pumps to impart kinetic energy to the slurry. Without them, the slurry would not move; however, pumps do not exist in isolation. North American Mining examines two other critical elements in slurry transportation – valves and pipelines – with the help of experts from Emerson, The Lubrizol Corporation, Valmet and
Rethinking the Role of Slurry Pump Seals
Rethinking the Role of Slurry Pump Seals
Slurry pump shaft seals play a critical part in improving pump uptime, reducing water consumption, and lowering operating costs. by Jonathan Rowland Slurry pumps power the circulatory system that keeps mineral processing plants running. Many factors go into ensuring the efficiency and reliability of these essential pieces of equipment. The shaft seal may play a
